I just built my computer and the light is on, CPU fan is spinning, but there is no video signal. I am using an integrated graphics card My components: Ryzen 5 5600 G cpu Asus prime B550M-A csm mobo G.Skill Ripjaws V 16gb (2x8gb) ram Western Digital Black SN750 SSD Seagate BarraCuda 1tb harddrive EVGA Supernova 650W 80Gold PSU I am aware that the 650 watts is probably overkill, I got it to be efficent and modular. I have installed everything and have turned the computer on using the screwdriver method, which prompts the fan to spin, light to come on, and hard disk to spin. Any idea what is going wrong? I think it might be about bios issues but I do not know how to do that..? I can add pictures if anyone is willing to try to help me troubleshoot. Thank you

Replace CPU and RAM, make sure fans have proper pressure, reset CMOS. Start with SSD and one RAM stick only. Verify RAM is placed in the right slot too.

Completed; no signal remains. It seems I might be resetting the CMOS incorrectly since the instructions are a bit confusing. What does "sufficient" pressure mean? I'm using the standard cooler that comes with the 5600G.

It seems the motherboard and CPU aren't communicating properly. Updating the BIOS might help, but it seems my motherboard doesn’t support that update. I think using an older CPU would resolve the issue, then reinstalling the 5600 should fix it. I plan to use BIOS flashing, but I’m not sure if my motherboard can handle it.
