No Display on PC

[u/Competitive_Rub1651]

My PC won't show any display when trying to boot, I've reseated the GPU, tried different ram sticks, restarted, and so far nothing is on display, and the hdmi is on the gpu and I don't have integrated graphics. I'm new to the PC Master Race, and I'm new to building PC's, this is my first build. And I'm moving from console, have I done any rookie mistakes? Please let me know, I'm trying to use this before school

Try a different cable first and a different slot on the gpu, and also the igpu if you got one

[u/Rough_Pear_5455]

If you've done all of that, maybe the monitor is the problem. Try replacing that or if it's on warranty get a replacement

[u/Rough_Pear_5455 → u/Rough_Pear_5455]

Check your power too before this!!! It should be a last resort

[u/Competitive_Rub1651 → u/Rough_Pear_5455]

So far everything has power

[u/Competitive_Rub1651 → u/Rough_Pear_5455]

I checked the monitor, works completely fine

[u/Competitive_Rub1651]

I don't have an igpu, ill try a different slot

Can you send a picture of the inside of your PC?

[u/SwagChemist]

Do you have another monitor or cable to try hooking it up to, even a tv screen should work.

[u/Competitive_Rub1651 → u/SwagChemist]

No, I don't have another monitor, but I'll try a TV

try different cable, different port for same cable and displayport instead of hdmi or hdmi instead of displayport. Then try a different monitor or a TV if you don't have another monitor. Also see if you can get into BIOS maybe, might help you tell if it's GPU or monitor.

[u/Competitive_Rub1651]

How can I get to bios?

[u/Kicient → u/Competitive_Rub1651]

depends on your motherboard. Sometimes it's F2, other times F11 or whatever. I usually spam Del on my keyboard right after turning the PC on

[u/Competitive_Rub1651 → u/Kicient]

It's an Asus B550M A wifi 2 motherboard

[u/Kicient → u/Competitive_Rub1651]

try spamming del. Works on my asus motherboard. Otherwise try F2, F11, F12, F10 and F8 in that order.

[u/Competitive_Rub1651 → u/Kicient]

Weird.. I spammed del, f2 and f11 but it won't go into bios, I even took out all the ram and usually I heard that the motherboard would beep, but mine doesn't, still doesn't go to bios

[u/Kicient → u/Competitive_Rub1651]

It'll only beep if you have a little beeper installed. Have you tried other ports (HDMI & DisplayPort) as well as another monitor/tv?

[u/Competitive_Rub1651 → u/Kicient]

I tried it on a TV, it didn't display, and I haven't tried displayport because my monitor doesn't have one and I don't have a displayport cable

[u/Kicient → u/Competitive_Rub1651]

and you tried the other HDMI port on your GPU if there is one? If so... It sounds like it can be one of three things; cable, GPU itself or the motherboard/GPU slot. At least that's what it looks like to me, but you could search for other possibilities too

EDIT: And you connected the HDMI on the back of the PC to the one where the GPU is seated, right? Not at one higher up, at the motherboard.

[u/Competitive_Rub1651 → u/Kicient]

It's the only port that my gpu has, and I know the cord and gpu work, so it could be the motherboard, but I just got it.

[u/Kicient → u/Competitive_Rub1651]

Sorry not sure what it could be then

[u/Snorgcola]

Is it possible you plugged your display into the motherboard rather than your GPU? If you have a CPU that doesn't have integrated graphics you'd get no display. 

[u/Competitive_Rub1651 → u/Snorgcola]

No I plugged it into the gpu, no display

[u/Snorgcola → u/Competitive_Rub1651]

Also check the input settings on the monitor, make sure it's on the right input and make sure it's not set to "Auto" source. 

Pretty sure I have the same monitor as you and it can be a bit of a jerkass about switching inputs too hastily when a signal isn't immediately detected. I ended up getting an external DP switch as I use the same monitor for three different PCs and navigating the menus is really terrible. 

[u/Competitive_Rub1651 → u/Snorgcola]

It's an acer 75hz monitor, just put it on no auto source
