I am not sure what is going wrong at the moment... black screen on boot.

A little background, I have had this PC for for nearly a year with no trouble. I decided to buy another monitor the other day (made a poor decision and went with an MG279q, good lord the bleed...) anyways, after hooking it up, my PC started to boot, I saw the red MSI press delete to enter bios page, then the screen just went black. No windows logo or anything, no mouse cursor, nada. Well, eventually after unplugging and re-plugging tons of shit and restarting it a hundred times, resetting CMOS a couple of times, it finally booted to windows and had no problems (in the end, I have no clue what made it work). Now this morning I turned it on again and it is doing the same thing. Also, if I try to enter the bios by pressing delete I get a black screen with a tiny white bar at the top. ALSO, I got rid of the MG279q, and it is still doing this with just my one BenQ now.

Any suggestion is very much appreciated!
