I recently traded my PS5 for a PC through Facebook Marketplace. Before we met, the seller assured me that it was working fine, and apparently, he factory reset it. However, once I got it home, it got stuck in BIOS and now I can't even get a display on my monitor. I'm really stuck and could use some help!

It's normal to run into issues after a trade like this. Since everything powers up but still no image, it could be a loose connection or something not set up right in the BIOS. Did you plug it into a different monitor?
When you say it won't show anything, does the PC at least power on? Are there any lights or sounds? Sometimes things can get loose during transportation, so it might be a good idea to open it up and reseat everything. And definitely make sure you're connected to the GPU.

Are you connecting the monitor to the graphics card or the motherboard? It's important to get that right. If you've tried both and still no luck, it might be time to dive in and check the internals.
