Hello everyone. I recently installed a new PC and everything worked smoothly yesterday and the day before. Today, after booting up, the computer functioned correctly, but my monitor isn’t showing any signal. I removed the GPU and connected the DP cable to the motherboard, yet there’s still no output. The motherboard displays debug lights, but none are active. After some waiting, I logged in using my credentials and pressed ALT while holding random keys to verify I was in Windows. I can hear the system sounds, confirming it’s running OS, but the monitor isn’t displaying anything from the GPU or integrated graphics. My specs include an I9-14900k RTX 3080, 32GB DDR5 RAM, 5600MHz PSU, and a 1TB M.2 SSD. I’ve followed all standard troubleshooting steps—reinserted RAM, used one stick only, reset the CMOS—but nothing resolves the missing display signal.

It seems like the connection might be faulty. Consider switching to another cable and a different screen if you can.

You're correct. I've used it with an older Amazon Fire TV, and the device has a screen.
