Hey everyone! I recently built my first PC, and I'm running into an issue. During the first boot, I did see something on the screen, but I can't remember what it said because I was following along with a build guide and started hitting some keys on my keyboard. Now, when I power it on, the monitor recognizes that it's connected and turned on, but nothing actually shows up. Plus, I don't see any diagnostic LEDs lighting up on the motherboard. I'm feeling pretty lost here—any suggestions?

Have you considered changing the cable you're using? Sometimes motherboards only display BIOS on HDMI ports during a fresh build. I had that exact issue before, and switching to HDMI worked like a charm for me.
You might want to try resetting your BIOS settings. Just turn off and unplug your PC, remove the battery from the motherboard, and give it a few minutes before putting it back in. That could help clear up the issue.
If you're using HDMI already, it could be worth trying a DisplayPort just to see if there's any difference. Sometimes, it's just a matter of the right connection!
