I've had my PC for only about 6 months now, custom built by me. In the past months I had noticed games aren't running as well as they should be, but I just thought it was the game until I realized it was all games that can't even run on low settings. Whenever I try to open the NVIDIA Control Panel I get the message "NVIDIA Display settings are not available" and then it says there's no display attached to the GPU. I've disabled and enabled the driver in Device Manager and I've tried plugging my monitor into the GPU, but nothing shows up on the screen. I feel like I've tried everything and it's still not working. The lights and fans work fine so the GPU definitely works to an extent.

PC Specs:
Intel Core i7-4790K @4 GHz (not overclocked)
16GB ram
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070
Running Windows 10

If you shut down and then make sure your monitor is plugged into the GPU, do you get anything on screen when you try to start the computer?
If not, plug monitor into motherboard again (assuming that you have onboard graphics too) and then go into the BIOS and make sure it is set to auto detect GPU and not set to onboard only.

No, nothing shows up when i plug the monitor into the GPU. And I've been trying to get into the BIOS, but the BIOS isn't even showing up now. Whenever i press the button on startup the monitor just shows black. I was able to get into it in the past so I'm not sure what's changed.
