When I try and start my computer I can’t see anything on the monitor, at first I thought something was wrong with my monitor but I also tried plugging it into a different monitor and nothing happens. So then I thought it was a video card problem so I switched the video card and powered on my computer and it worked but then when I restarted my computer I get the same problem. Can someone please help me?

Hmm, does your mobo have onboard video? if it does, plug it into the onboard, and go into bios and force video to PCI-e or AGP.
