Recently, after taking my PC off use for a weekend, I decided to clean it. After cleaning with just compressed air, I plugged everything back in as it was. When it was time to turn it on, the fans, cooler, and GPU started, but neither of my screens received any signal, nor did my mouse or keyboard work. I looked through an old forum post about someone facing the same issue and tried the suggested fixes—like verifying cable connections and resetting the CMOS. So far, nothing seems to help. Could you assist and suggest any possible solutions?

You need additional details about the motherboard and whether any lights are illuminating it. Consider re-seating the GPU and RAM. Check if there’s any display output.

The motherboard model is A320M-HDV. The motherboard lights are active. I’m unsure about reinserting the GPU and RAM modules; also appreciate your prompt reply.

I’d search for a YouTube tutorial and go through it step by step. Make sure to verify all the additional connections involved.
