I received most of an older gaming PC from my uncle. It has an ASUS B85M-E motherboard, a Gigabyte Gv-N166SOC-6GD card, and a 750W power supply. Everything is connected and it powers on, but I can’t see the BIOS display. I’m looking for affordable solutions to get started. Any advice would be appreciated.

I placed the GPU in the GPU DP via a DP to VGA adapter and also tested the HDMI connection. I checked every port on the motherboard as well.

Shifted to Troubleshooting section, remove GPU and test with only iGPU. Consider resetting CMOS to verify iGPU is active.
