Product: HP Pavilion Desktop 560-p0xx
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I installed an ubuntu dual boot on my pc and could not access the boot menu to select between Ubuntu/Windows until I finally plugged an old monitor in, using a DVI cable. It appears that the Boot menu is only displayed over DVI and the HDMI provides no signal until the OS is booted. Since the new screen does not have a dvi port, this is an issue. This is explicitly NOT an issue with the os since every problem goes away once it is booted. I updated the Bios to F.45-05/22/2019, but there is still no option to select a display output. I also updated the ubuntu/linux grub, even though this was a fresh installation, just to be sure. 

Any help would be appreciated.
