Hello everyone, I am in a bit of a funk with my computer. I built this computer about a year ago and now it is giving me troubles. I took out my m.2 ssd and hdd then put in my friends ssd into my computer. I went to turn it on then poof, nothing. I have tried everything to fix it but it just won't worked. I have tried each ram stick in each slot on the motherboard. I tried reseating the graphics card multiple times. I tried using different pci-e slots for the graphics card. I tried running onboard video. I reseated the processor. I literally took it completely apart then put it back together and still, NOTHING! Unfortunately I do not have the motherboard speaker to test for any beeps. But I literally was just using it, I shut it off and swapped hard drives and poof it wont display anything. Please help!!

Not sure if this is your problem, but I was fooling around with my computer, and somehow the DVI input got messed up on my monitor (Benq). I hooked it up via a dvi cord and it worked. Never got the DVI plug working again. Tried 2 different cords.
Hope this might fix your problem.
