My Mini PC Won't Display on the Monitor, Did I Mess It Up?

I have a mini PC that didn't have enough VRAM to run a video game, even though it met all the other minimum requirements. I read online that you could allocate RAM to act as VRAM, so I went into the BIOS settings and changed the UMA settings from Auto to Non Legacy. Now, my monitor shows no signal, and the keyboard isn't lighting up, but the mouse is working. Am I right to think I've bricked my mini PC?

It sounds like you might need to reset the BIOS to fix this. Sometimes, changing settings can lead to configurations that prevent the system from booting up properly. Try resetting the BIOS and see if that brings back the signal to your monitor.

If the reset doesn't work and you're still getting no signal, make sure that the connection from your PC to the monitor is secure. You might also want to try connecting to a different monitor or cable to rule out any issues there.
