I had a similar issue with an existing Ubuntu 16.04 LTS install on my
Dell Precision 5820 tower that has booted without issue for 2 years.
After updating the BIOS via the Ubuntu Software Center (to 1.13.0), my

Should I get any logs to assist in figuring out why enabling VMD causes

- Install Ubuntu and Nvidia proprietary graphics driver.
- Reboot and now it's ok to use to Nvidia as video output.
