My PC powers on but it doesnt show anything on the monitor. The monitor doesnt say no signal but it's like it's displaying a totally black screen with nothing on it and backlight on. The fans on the machine rotate, the power LED blinks normally, I can hear hard disk spinning, the mouse and the keyboard light up fine, the DVD drive slides out and sucks in fine. I was using it normally until yesterday and from today it is giving me this issue. I have tried pressing all fn keys, del, esc but it doesnt bring up boot menu. The monitor is working good, it displays the manufacturer message normally when I turn it on.

My PC:

MB : Intel DH67CL
CPU: i3-3220
no dedicated card, using integrated graphics (3rd world costly PC parts : /)
4gb ddr3 ram
installed windows 10 , 1 week back

I am not a computer smart guy but I've tried:

Removing CMOS battery and reinserting after 2 minutes
Cleaning and reinserting ram
cleaning dust from CPU Heatsink
checking if all cables are in place

PS: I have been using this PC without any changes for the past 4 years and I had never previously faced any issue. Also never heard any beep sound on boot up. I have no idea how to check which part of my computer has failed.

Any help would be much appreciated :)

H67 Express Chipset is 2011 product. I don't see that Chipset as listed as being compatible with Windows 10.

Here is a list of supported Chipsets by Asus for Windows 10.

It means your motherboard might not be able to support Windows 10.
