Hi there, I'm new to this project and have checked all the tutorials but still can't figure out what's wrong. After assembling everything, when I power on the PC it shows a no display port signal error. The GPU fan spins briefly then the VGA debug LED appears and turns off. I can access BIOS but not further. Windows isn't installed yet, which is why the error redirects me back to BIOS instead of being a driver problem. I've updated the BIOS on my board too. I've tested it in every PCIe slot, cleaned contacts, used different cables, and even checked if another board component might be causing the issue. I'm really concerned the GPU might not be working. Any suggestions from more experienced folks would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for reading!

This happens since there are no windows or OS set up, so installing your OS should resolve the issue
