Windows 10: HDR Capable Monitor and Windows 10 aren't working

I recently brought the newly released Asus XG32VC monitor and love it.

Now with this monitor HDR works fine and how it is supposed to be on SRGB mode but if I select Racing mode and turn HDR on, my screen gets a yellow tint over it which I can't get rid of.

I have done lots of research and have gotten nowhere.

I have tried:

-Turning Night Light off

-Adjusting the Night Light Slider to 0

-Try and adjust the monitors colour, contrast and brightness (Asus locks those settings with SRGB mode or HDR turned on)

-Tried with 10-bit and 8-bit dithering

-Updated my Graphics Card and Monitor as well as Windows 10

-Downloaded and applied the exact model colour profile for the monitor

I would love to use HDR for gaming and some occasional movies but with the poor HDR implementation by Microsoft, it's not that easy.

Is there anyone that knows a Microsoft employee or someone that works there to be able to pass this on? Cause it's not just only me that has problems with HDR and we would all like to be able to use HDR.

Just like even give us an option for the Colour Temp in the HDR settings as that could go a long way and would be a first step in helping fix most problems.

If anyone has any suggestions on what else I can try let me know asap as I paid for this monitor and can't even use one of the main features of this monitor.

Setting up HDR on external monitor

Hi just got an HDR capable monitor, a
U2718q, and am using an HDR capable GPU (GeForce 1070). However, Windows 10 doesn't seem to recognize it as an HDR capable display. I followed the guide

HDR and advanced color settings in Windows 10, and it says that HDR is not supported. Any idea how to fix that? It's an HDR capable monitor, hooked up via DisplayPort to an HDR capable GPU. I'm running Windows 10 Pro Version 1709, OS Build 16299.64 (just
updated it today), and also have the latest graphics card driver.

Any ideas what to do?

 

HDR on HDR monitor causes issue on secondary, non-HDR monitor

I have an Aorus AD27QD (HDR) monitor as my primary display and an ultrawide 34UM88-P (Non-HDR) as my secondary. If HDR is enabled in windows and I go to a full screen video on the non-HDR monitor after a few seconds it will flicker blue then become severely
washed out. Coming out of full screen fixes this. If HDR is not enabled full screen shows the colors perfectly normally.

Secondarily, with windows HDR on on the Aorus, the colors dim pretty drastically. HDR content great but anything that isnt HDR is dim enough to make me question if my brightness is turned down. (Its not, its 90/100). The white of a plain browser window
seems so dim its nearly grey. I also tested this on what I know is a particularly vibrant (non-HDR) . HDR on? Terrible and muted. HDR off? Bright and vibrant.

I have played with in-monitor settings, nvidia control panel, factory reset of monitor, basically everything I can think of. Everything points to it being a windows issue.

I also tried out the suggestions from this post. And it pointed me to this
set of OS release notes which didnt solve my issue either.

I could really use some help because I am really feeling like I wasted my money on this monitor.

PC:

i5 7600k

GTX 1080ti

16GB 3000Hz Corsair RAM

Windows, CPU and GPU on latest drivers available.

Monitors:

LG 34UM88-P (HDMI)

Aorus AD27QD (DisplayPort)

 

Black screen flickering issue with HDR capable monitors

Hey guys,

I already started a thread in the NVIDIA forums:
Forum Thread 01

There are also numerous threads to be found in the Unreal forums:
Forum Thread 02

The problems started ever since I bought a new 4k HDR capable monitor (BENQ EW3270U).

I'm talking about seemingly random black screens while running 3D applications like games that occur only for a fraction of second. It happens quite infrequently while playing some games but I am able to reproduce the issue while using Unreal Engine 4.

The issue can be seen in this video recorded by some other guy :

It seems that this has been fixed on Windows 10.

Enabling HDR & WCG in Win 10 seems to solve it for other users.

I would really like to continue working in Unreal Engine 4 using Windows 7, so I'm wondering if there is a fix for Win 7 available.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Robert
