Hi all!
I have a problem I'm stumped on, not really sure if it's hardware related or something else, but hopefully you guys can help me out.
I had my PC stored for about a month, and just earlier this week I hooked it back up and noticed a huge change in performance. After some investigation I realized that my computer was running off of integrated graphics, despite having a graphics card in my motherboard. I don't believe I did anything to I've tried using a different graphics card and moving my graphics card to a different slot, neither of which worked.
I then attempted to boot from BIOS, hoping to change settings in order to ensure my motherboard utilized my graphics card before using the integrated graphics, but whenever I try to boot up my BIOS my monitor gets no input. It doesn't seem like the BIOS boots at all.
I'm beginning to believe that I may have damaged my motherboard moving it in and out of storage, but I don't know too much about PC's so I wanted to see what you guys had to say before I go out buying a replacement.
Let me know any ideas you have about getting my BIOS to boot or getting my Motherboard to utilize my graphics card again.
Thanks for your time and knowledge!
