Hi im borrowing a pc from my friend and i tooh his pc in a bag and walked it home but i didnt drop it or anything like that. And when i plugged it in my monitor i had a little problem i had to plug the hdmi in and out a couple of times before the display showed up. And that happend a few times when i switched games and the screen went black. Anyway i was playing gta 5 today and the pc crashed and i restarted it but the computer was on but the screen was still black. I could hear my freind on discord so we talked for a little but i could see nothing because i had no signal on my monitor so i switched hdmi cables 3times but it didnt work so i took out the ram and dusted it off with a soft brush but it wouldnt work either so i unplugged all the cables and plugged them in again but nothing happend, also i switched the gpu to another slot but i had no signal. I have tried 3 monitors/tvs but none of them will work. Do you know what is wrong????

GPU might be bad/broken.

What are your specs? If you have integrated graphics, try using that and if possible, try using a different gpu. Another possibility is a bad display cable, so if you can, try using a different cable.
