I need some help with my PC. When I hit the power button, all the fans turn on, but I'm not getting any display on my monitor. The monitor is connected and functioning fine. I've also noticed that when I press the reset button on the case, the fans speed up for about half a second, and a red light over the CPU turns on. This issue started after I attempted to remove a fan from the case, and it hasn't been fixed since. Any ideas on what might be wrong?

First thing to check is the CPU power cable – is it plugged in properly? It’s usually located at the top left of the motherboard. Also, make sure your monitor’s HDMI or DisplayPort is connected to your GPU and not the motherboard itself. And hey, it wouldn’t hurt to reseat your RAM sticks just in case! If you could share more pics of the inside of your PC, that would help too.
You might want to double-check the video connection. Ensure the HDMI is plugged into the GPU directly and not the motherboard. Since you mentioned reseating the RAM, did you try booting the PC with just one stick? Sometimes there can be compatibility issues with RAM slots.
The CPU power cable is definitely plugged in, and the HDMI is going into the GPU. I've also reseated the RAM and even tried booting with just one stick, but no luck. Here’s a pic of the inside of my PC: https://imgur.com/a/vVtZGbl.
