Hi there, I'm currently assembling a computer and have encountered a problem. Whenever I put in my video card, my CPU will stop working. Now, the hdmi cable is connected from the motherboard into the monitor, and even with or without a video card there is nothing on the monitor, the screen is just black. Is there something I'm missing? My motherboard is new and hasn't been exposed to static electricity/whatever that might kill it, so it's not dead. CPU and CPU fan are working fine whenever the video card isn't there, but even then, the monitor screen is black. Everything runs well, except for the monitor on the screen and the video card. Please help! What should I do?
I also tried plugging the hdmi from the video card into the monitor, but then, the cpu stopped working as well and the monitor was black. I'm stumped, what am I doing wrong?
