First off, I am rather unknowledgable on computers and I don't know a ton about building. I can manage and maintain a working pc software-wise. So, I bought a pre-built. I know this means a minefield of potential problems, but I haven't had any of significance until now. Heres my current issue.
When I start up my pc, the case lights and fans all seem to be fine. But my monitor enters power saving mode, with none of the boot up screens appearing. I run an hdmi directly from an LG ultrawide monitor to the GPU. No adapters or anything. I've tried changing cables and switching ports, including the hdmi port on the motherboard. No change.
What's weirdest, my mouse lights up for a split second on startup, but then goes off. Keyboard lights up just fine and stays lit.
I don't know if the aforementioned things correlate. The PC isn't dirty, hasn't been moved or tampered with, and has been great to this point. It was last used a day ago, and was shut down from the Start menu.
I'm just wondering if anyone has any suggestions. I'm willing to learn to take it apart if needed, and if anyone can provide links to a source explaining how to do so. PC runs on windows 10. I'm so close to finishing a big project and this is an absolute downer.
