I've experimented with RAM, hard drives, GPUs, motherboards, and CPUs, but the PSU remains the problem. It seems the power supply is faulty, causing static lines on the screen and preventing my mouse or keyboard from functioning properly. They keep flashing but don't work. I've also tried updating drivers everywhere and changing monitors, yet nothing resolves the issue.

It seems similar to what you described on the video. The problem appears only when using another operating system and during POST, suggesting a potential power supply or PSU issue. You mentioned a UPS might help stabilize the power from the wall.

Check if there are any three-phase power supplies or gear nearby.

Don't overlook your GPU on another machine just yet—there could be a reason it wasn’t working before. It’s possible removing it restores functionality. Also, provide more specifics; mention details like model, RAM, storage, and any error messages you see. Remember, digital displays have been without snow for years, so the issue might lie elsewhere.

Consider switching to a different video cable. I've noticed various issues when using DisplayPort and DVI connectors. (Don't even mention the poor quality of old VGA signals...)

I agree with that. I've also experienced situations where a cable failed, so I didn't post at the time.
