There is no signal coming in to watch right now
Hi guys, I'm trying to fix a 12-year-old PC that has sat idle for two years. The issue started just one day ago: it used to work perfectly until suddenly it stops sending data to the monitor while everything lights up and starts up normally. I took out the graphics card and tested it on my main system, which worked fine with HDMI plugged in, so the signal was coming out there too. I also checked RAM using the MemOK button on the motherboard, and that one too booted without any red error lights. But I can't test the RAM on my main system because my PC runs on DDR3 while my main computer needs DDR4. So here is my question: could it be an old power supply unit (PSU) struggling to send a signal when I plug in the HDMI cable? When I use the HDMI port, my monitor turns off instead of staying on with no signal?
CPU: Intel Core i7-3820 with socket LGA2011 and Quad Core specs at 3.6GHz speed with 130W power draw, running on DDR3 RAM at 1866MHz with a capacity of 32GB in the Corsair Dominator GT kit. GPU: EVGA GeForce GTX 980 for graphics performance. Storage includes a Samsung SSD 840 Series 250GB drive and a Western Digital Desktop Green 2TB SATA 6Gb/s hard drive using IntelliPower technology with 64MB cache, all compatible with the ASUS P9X79 LE motherboard running on KUN PC-PROD ATX platform.
