I've been trying to build my PC for months now, but I'm really struggling to get it to work. It powers on, but all I see is a black screen. Previously, I pressed a button to reset the fTPM because it wouldn't boot. I've also reseated the RAM and checked that both the 8-pin and 24-pin power connections are properly in place. On top of that, I'm confused about how to connect the preinstalled case fans. I'd really appreciate any help or guidance!

Could you share your PC specs? If your PC powers on, that's a great sign! You might just be missing something small. Classic mistake: if you're using a GPU, make sure the monitor is connected to the GPU—and not the motherboard. If you've waited about 15 minutes and still see nothing, let’s dig deeper!
First thing to check is if your fans are spinning when you power it on. If they're not, that could indicate a power issue or that something's not connecting right.
Is your monitor showing a 'no signal' message? Make sure you check the cable connections and try a different port if you can. Also, if you have a dedicated GPU, double-check that your monitor is connected to it and not the motherboard. Sometimes, first-time boots can take a little longer, like 5-10 minutes, so give it a shot!
