Hi,
My friend has a problem. When he starts his computer cooling system and everything starts but his screen is black and nothing shows up. All cables on motherboard are on their place, everything is plugged in, monitor is on, RAMs are in. We tried to change ram, change power supply. We have no idea what could it be. Thanks for help.

IT's me here. I didn't change any components, one day the pc booted normally, next day it didn't at all. I suspect a fryed motherboard. Could it be something else?

You've changed some things to troubleshoot.

Again, please post your full spec. Something could've failed, but without knowing the spec to give us a starting point, it's difficult to even get an idea....

I have:
CPU: Intel Core i7 3770
GPU: Nvidia GeForce GTX 960
RAM: 16 gb DDR 3
PSU: 460 W
chipset Intel Z75
Motherboard: idk (it's from a prebuild pc and I can't find what motherboard it has)

I tryed swapping PSU for 450 W one, it didn't work, so I thought maybe it is because the PSU doesn't provide enought power, so I spawwpe my GTX 960 for 660 but it still didn't work. I also tryed unplugging all the unneccesary components like HDD.
