so y computer the other day stoped displaying on screens. i was using the graphics card inputs for the vga cables because i got rubbing alcohol in the original ports on the motherboard. but now it wont display anything on the screen i checked my ram and all the cables and installed a new graphics card to see if that was the problem and it wasnt. i was thinking of buying a new motherboard thinking that was the problem but i dont have a windows 8 disk to re install windows nor the product key i was wondering if the motherboard is the real problem and if i bought a new motherboard either exactly the same motherboard or a new upgraded one if i needed to install windows 8 again or if theres a way to bypass that or if the motherboard is even my problem

Try to use the second pci-e slot if the motherboard has one. Also remove the motherboard from the pci-e slot and the closely inspecting the graphics card and the pci-e slot for any signs of a break or a crack.
