Computer help needed
6 months ago
General
Is there any techies able to help out? My gaming PC no longer shows on my screen and nothing I do can fix it, used different HDMI ports on my PC and on my monitor (Roku smart TV), used 3 different HDMI cables even bought a Display Port adaptor for the HDMI, nothing still.
My PC turns on and works fine there but the signal isn't coming through, monitor/TV acts as if the PC is still turned off even when it isn't and I don't know what to do anymore, dunno if something IN my PC is faulty or what, it's been fine for 4 years now, only started for a week or two go... When I'd be playing a game then sudden black screen then the screen that shows when it's unplugged/turned off, PC is still on but can't see until I hard restarted it, did this more and more till where we're at now.

If your computer works fine OTHER than the screen issue, that seems to be the most logical solution.
If you have a different graphics card, you should try that.
Especially if the screen doesn't register during boot.

Note that if your not comfortable with taking apart your PC, I would suggest taking it to a technician.
Swapping GPU for motherboard video output best done with PC switched off and powering up with that one motherboard port the only one cabled to a monitor, no other video cables even present, should isolate this as needed.
