A few weeks back a friend attempted to assemble his initial computer and encountered several problems. After troubleshooting most issues, everything functioned properly until one problem emerged. Eventually, I restored it to working condition and returned it for testing. Suddenly, the PC shut down, the VGA indicator lit up, and the specifications stopped displaying. The system now shows an 80+ Bronze rating with a Corsair LX 8GB RAM, RX 570 GPU, and a Thermaltake 600W power supply. This situation has really puzzled me—I've never encountered this issue before.

The graphics card or the power connectors could have come out of place. Reinsert the graphics card and double-check that all the power connectors are securely connected.

The 3200G includes built-in graphics; consider removing the graphics card entirely to disable it.

Consider resetting the CMOS if needed. Otherwise, you might want to explore alternative solutions or ask for more guidance.

I eliminate the RX 570 entirely from the setup. Check if the Vega graphics are working, then connect the HDMI cable to the motherboard's HDMI port.

Basically, the issue is unclear. It seems like you're trying to troubleshoot but don't have much info.

It's likely he initially had a PSU that caught fire. I performed thorough benchmarks on all components, kept it overnight, and inspected for damage. No issues were found until I returned it to him.
