Black screen when changed monitor 1080p to 1440p

just upgraded my monitor from 1080p to 1440p (LG GL850)

When I first loaded the game it initially looked ok and could navigate the pre game screens,  but as soon as I went into the first game the screen went black,

since then every time I try and go into the game is is always black , but I can hear the game music, so it is loading, just no output?, 

I have played around with the SWBF2 settings under: STAR WARS Battlefront II\settings\ProfileOptions_profile  but this did not help. 

I have deleted the game and reloaded it completely and again it is doing the same thing

but BF5 works perfectly with no issues at all, (so I know the monitor and GPU etc is working fine)

    Yep. Once driver was updated it fixed the problem. 

    But the old driver was fine as bf5 was working no issue with it. 

    I think updating the driver somehow changed the settings so 1440p stayed locked in battlefront. If that makes sense.

    Oddly, I have the opposite problem. 1440 is fine. When I change to 1080 (for higher FPS), I sporadically get a black screen for about 3 seconds during gameplay.

    I've tried different NVIDIA driver versions with same effect.

    Any ideas how I can fix?

    DXDIAG attached.
