I received an AMD RX 580 graphics card from a friend. When I inserted it, the fans didn't spin at first, so I connected it via a PCI-E cable and the fans started working. However, my monitor either goes to sleep or doesn't turn on when I connect the HDMI to the graphics card. Any assistance would be very helpful.

Welcome to the forums, newcomer!
When posting a thread of troubleshooting nature, it's customary to include your full system's specs. Please list the specs to your build like so:
CPU:
CPU cooler:
Motherboard:
Ram:
SSD/HDD:
GPU:
PSU:
Chassis:
OS:
Monitor:
include the age of the PSU apart from it's make and model. BIOS version for your motherboard at this moment of time.
What GPU were you using prior?

My pc fails to show anything after installing the new graphics card
CPU: AMD A10 - 8750 Radeon R7 12 computer cores 4c+8G 3.6 GHz
CPU cooler: Coolermaster hyper 212 evo
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-F2A68HM-HD2
RAM: Micron 8KTF51264AZ 1-2*4 GB
HDD: WD Blue 2TB (2015)
GPU: AMD rx580
Power supply: Corsair cx550
Chassis: Phanteks eclipse p400
OS: Windows 10 64bit
Monitor: HP pavilion 24xw
I acquired my power supply seven years ago, likely when it was released. My BIOS version is FC and the GPU I had before was the GeForce GTX 1050ti
