Hello, I recently bought my first gaming PC and it was open box so I figured there was something wrong it, but for the price I simply couldn't resist. After booting it up once just to assess the damage I nothing seemed to be in too bad of shape other than all the software installed by the previous owner to OC. However I turned it on this morning and had "no HDMI" signal from my monitor. Hooked up my laptop to the Monitor and it works so the problem isn't with the monitor. I have tried HDMI and DVI cables. There are no HDMI, VGA, or DVI ports on my MOBO either. So I take my Graphics Card out and first thing i see Is about 12 gold pins that have popped out of place in my PCIe 16. into the slot. I guess this is my problem, not really sure. I tried putting my Graphics Card into another PCIe 16, however I still got no HDMI signal. Could use some advice, Thanks.
MOBO: Gigabyte 990FXA-UD3
CPU: AMD FX9590 4.7Ghz
Graphics Card: AMD Radeon R9 290 4GB
OS: Windows 8.1 64-bit
