Well good news about getting on the recent drivers and having HTPC end sorted out.
On the Denon Side, I'd make sure your are on the latest firmware, play with the HDMI options.... but there is a whole set of posts with similar black screen issues issues - https://www.avforums.com/threads/denon-avr-x2200w-avr-x3200w-owners-thread.1970691/page-270:

I have ditched this POS Dr HDMi 4k. Completely disconnected from the chain, for good, not going back.
Now I am doing some playing around with HDR from this PC, and the colors are washed out on my Tv screen. This is if I enable HDR in Windows settings (testing only), or when I play an HDR video file in JRVR. The Tv screen blacks out for a second and it when comes back the colors are muted, desktop or videos. If I pull up the Sony Tv picture settings menu, the HDR Mode indication is NOT On, as should be like when playing something from built in apps, or Sony Bluray player, or Shield Pro, or Roku, etc. Incredibly, if I chrome remote desktop into the system, the colors are over saturated on the laptop screen!
Some quick facts:
1. Windows display settings confirm Display capabilities > Use HDR = Yes and Use WCG apps = Yes. But I am NOT enabling HDR in Windows display settings when using JRVR.
2. JRVR says Screen is HDR capable = Yes. I have both check marks checked.
3. When not in HDR mode, my Denon reports 4k60, RGB, 8bit
4. When playing HDR video, my Denon reports 4k60, BT.2020 RGB, 8bit -isn't this supposed to be 10 bit?
JRVR ctrl-j screen shot...
jmone:
8 bit is fine for HDR. The screen shot is showing that JRVR is outputting HDR. The Denon is also reporting HDR (well 2020). No idea why the TV is not switching (my Sony does but that is via a Yami AVR)

Somewhere in all this, I had disabled auto hdr switching in the tv picture settings. Working now. I am groot
Have something coming in the mail that I'm hoping will help with my multi-monitor AVR passthrough issue.

MDK having same issue as Dr HDI 4k - Get "no signal" on Tv screen when powering AVR Off/On. I can get picture back on Tv screen by toggling GPU refresh 59/60 or 60/59. Only choice is leaving my AVR On forever.
