Hey, I see the issue you're having. Your PC seems to behave differently depending on how it's powered on—normal boot works fine but before the login screen appears it goes black, and the logo disappears. You mentioned the display flickers during certain actions, which could be related. The BIOS access is tricky, especially with a new build, so you might need to try different methods like using a USB key or checking for any hidden boot options. Also, ensure all drivers are correctly installed and consider updating your BIOS if available. Let me know what you find next!

I've tried a few approaches—removing a RAM stick, booting from one, and resetting BIOS that way. Others suggest rewriting the BIOS on the chip using an EEPROM burner, which is more complicated.

Oh no, I messed up again! I connected the HDMI cable to the motherboard instead of the GPU. Thanks for catching that!

To make the port function properly, you need to turn it on.

It seems the system is displaying the boot menu or BIOS. Are you sure everything is enabled? Let me know if you need further help!

many won't require it... certain programs support IGPU, yet gamers probably don't.
