So I just finished building my very first pc, and everything seems to be fine, not red lights on my mb indicating problems, all the fans work all the lights work all the buttons work, keyboard lights up when plugged in... BUT I just can't get my pc to send a signal to my monitor. It's also a brand new monitor(Dell s2716dg). At first I thought it's the monitor because it instantly enters energy save mode or something, but when I plug in my laptop via HDMI it turns on and shows the picture. I have tried to plug an HDMI cable from monitor to MB, no success, also tried DP cable into the Graphic Card, but it also stayed black. What am I doing wrong? I need to get to the BIOS, but it won't even give me a single picture :/...

ps:I read the MB manual and it has 3 red LED'S that come to life when either CPU, RAM or VGA are not working, but they are all off so that can't be the problem.

Try it without the gpu.

 

Probably a bad motherboard assuming everything is plugged in right.

Gigabyte GTX 1080

MSI Z170 TOMAHAWK AC

I5 6600K
