It appears this only happens when I have my two monitors plugged in. If I unplug one and run the system with one monitor the system boots and behaves fine. I have now tested this 10 times all 5 times it started with one monitor and didn't with two. I'm thinking this might be a driver issue since I haven't plugged the system into the internet yet.

The interesting this is that if I start the system with one monitor and plug the other one in while it's on, the machine operates fine and had use of both monitors properly.
