I just built a new PC and everything was working fine. Was able to load BIOS and was installing Windows 10. During installation Windows asked me to re-install because it was unable to use my SSD. So I had to go back to my BIOS and configure my SSD. After restarting my PC, it stopped turning on completely. I took out everything and placed them back again, checked all the connections. I notice that my PC won't turn on at all with the GPU plugged in. With the GPU out my PC will turn on but then I get a "No VGA Signal" or "no HDMI" signal". I can't even load up BIOS now.

My Build

Motherboard: Asus Z170-A ATX LGA1151 Motherboard

Memory: Corsair Vengeance LPX 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR4-3000 Memory

PSU: EVGA SuperNOVA NEX 750W 80+ Gold Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply

GPU: EVGA GeForce GTX 970 04G-P4-2974-KR 4GB

Kingston SSD 240 GB

Any help or info would be greatly appreciated !!!

GPU: Intel Core i5-6600 3.3GHz Quad-Core Processor

But the problem is I can't even access BIOS. I have the GPU out and use the Motherboards VGA port. Even connected to the VGA port on the motherboard I get a Black screen and a "no VGA signal" or "no HDMI signal". There is no BIOS "press del or F12" prompt"

Make sure the 6+6pin power connectors are plugged into the graphics card from the PSU.
