DP is a POS connector. How to disable display state detection?

Not to highjack this... but I have the 49 inch utlrawide monitor and 90% of hte time if the monitor is off or goes to sleep on DP it doesnt come back on (win7). Is there a better connection to use? like DVI-D or HDMI2?

I would try any of them, starting with DVI-D. DP seems to have most problems.
 
I've never had an issue with HDMI or DP.

I turn off my 4k monitor and upon turning it back on it just works as normal. Perhaps this is a monitor specific thing?

Do you have a multiple screen setup?
 
I had an issue with DP that was corrected when I moved to Win10 1703 - the issue existed in all editions of Win10 dating prior to it.

The issue - if my monitor was off before loading into Windows from a cold boot or before recovering from sleep, upon turning it on it would be detected as a new display and all my icons would be messed up. The Nvidia Control panel would pop up the notification of a new g-sync display being connected, and in some cases I would need to reconfigure my Spyder colorimeter profile to be re-loaded as well.

For reference - this occurred with a XB271HU on both maxwell and pascal based cards.

Note - I also use Win+P to extend to a receiver/TV/audio setup and in rare circumstances a misclick/keypress into duplicate mode can mess things up as well. That hasn't been corrected.
