I recently upgraded my GPU from a GeForce 2060 to a 5060 Ti, but now I'm facing a major issue—my screen just goes black. I've tried all sorts of fixes I found online, including using DDU to uninstall my old drivers before installing the new card. The problem is, I can't even get into the BIOS because there's no display at all. The new card lights up and seems to get power, and I have a Corsair RM750 PSU along with 32GB of RAM, but it all works perfectly fine with my old card. When I try to connect my HDMI to the motherboard instead, nothing shows up. I'm really lost here and would appreciate any help or suggestions. Thanks!

Can you share what motherboard and CPU you're using? Knowing that might help in troubleshooting the issue further.
First, try plugging in your old GPU again or connecting your display cable to the motherboard if your CPU has integrated graphics. This might help you get access to the BIOS. Once you're in there, check if your motherboard needs a BIOS update—it could help with compatibility issues with the new GPU.
I can't even get into the BIOS. If I plug my cable into the motherboard, I still just get a black screen at startup. Restarting from the advanced recovery option also leads to a black screen. I've tried everything, and the system boots straight to the Windows lock screen without showing anything else.
I'm using a Z690 Taichi Razer Edition motherboard with a 13th gen i5 13600KF CPU.
