Last night while streaming Plex on my TV from my computer, streaming was slow and unresponsive. I rebooted from Windows 10 and it hung up on the Windows 10 logo circling for a good 15 minutes. I reset my PC from the case, but then my monitor wouldn't show anything because there was no connectivity.
I assumed something was bricked so I moved the jumper and removed the battery to reset CMOS. I booted up my PC, but I didn't see anything on my screen again. I eventually started taking each item out. The last item was the graphics card.
With DVI running off the motherboard, the PC finally booted.
So I amazon primed a new graphics card thinking that it broke down. I put it in but got the same result. I moved between PCIe Slots and got the same result. I went into BIOS to change the "gen" of the PCIe slots to 3, same result. With that said, I was leaning towards the motherboard, but here's the odd thing.
I've gotten the new graphics card installed after changing out the PSU cable that was originally used on the old graphics card. Perhaps it was just sheer luck. I thought I was in the clear, however I just booted up from a complete shutdown and again my screen had no connectivity. When I press reset on the front of my machine though it boots me to the Windows 10 login screen.
I don't know what direction to go to. Has anyone had this happen to them before?
