So about 5 months ago, I got my PC built. My brothers PC stopped working so he asked to test his GPU in my computer. So, I obviously helped him out. I took out my GTX 760 and we tested his and found out it didn't work. Then in the process of putting my GPU back in, I accidentally dropped a screw in my computer while the power supply was plugged in, but not turned on. Then when I went to test it, it didn't display. I made sure my GPU worked, and I even tried getting a new mobo and a new PSU but they didn't work. I can't figure out the issue! 

 

I don't have much money at all, so I can't afford new parts. If anyone has any ideas of what to do, please tell me. I'll try anything! Thank you!

It shoud not hurt. And its less than a buck. Or even free if the store salesman have a good mood.

So you saying even the windows loads up, but you dont have display? It might be a cable problem.

If its cable problem, check both end of the cable for bent? or missing pins. And reseat cables. Or check the monitor.

The monitor works, the pins should be fine. I've tried different psu and Mobo. The HDMI cord works, all of the LEDs and fans spin, but the monitor says "no signal". My friend said he will bring by an old PC of his so I can test the graphics card. And thank you for trying to help me and recommending the beeper!

One last idea, turn off the PSU, try to turn on the pc (With PSU turned off) to get rid of any power, take out the 760 and look for dust or hair in the PCIe slot.
