Moving Troubles: My MSI Monitor Says “HDMI 1 No Signal” but I’m Using DisplayPort

I just moved, and I'm having trouble with my MSI monitor. It's showing a "HDMI 1 no signal" message, even though I'm trying to connect it with DisplayPort. I've reseated both my GPU and RAM sticks, and when I power on, all the fans are running (except for the GPU since it usually only spins under load), and the motherboard light is on. I've also done power cycling several times, but nothing seems to work. The monitor's on-screen display (OSD) doesn't show anything without a signal, and I can't get it to recognize the DisplayPort input. I thought I had packed my HDMI cables, but I can't find them. Am I stuck until I can buy an HDMI cable? By the way, I have an MSI MAG 275QPF x30 monitor. I've also made a video demonstrating my issue with the power knob for reference.

You might want to plug something else into the HDMI port to see if it gets a signal. If it does, then access the menu controls and switch to DisplayPort from there. Fingers crossed it works!

Have you tried using the button on your monitor to select the DisplayPort input? Sometimes monitors default to HDMI and need manual switching.
