    Howdy Everyone,

    I just purchased a Raspberry Pi to tinker around with, and was hoping to use my M17xR4 HDMI-in to set it up and configure it. At first I thought it was working great, but every time it causes my M17xR4 to reboot after some indeterminate amount of time. I just upgraded my drivers to Catalyst 14.4 and the latest Intel HD drivers, but have Enduro turned On. Once I complete my system verification (after 3 BSODs I do some quick checks), I will turn Enduro Off and see if it still causes it. Has anybody else seen/experienced this using HDMI-in? This is the first time since I got my M17xR4 that I tried to use it. Thanks!

    Rich S.
