Having a nightmare lads.
I built my first pc a few months back with the help of @orbitalwalsh and @Plec, top blokes!
Today I come home from work and the monitor displays “no signal”
My wife was using the PC working from home and when she finished my son went on it.
My sons only six and he’s telling me that the screen was black so he pushed the power button on the monitor and the screen came on. He then tried to put in my pin for Windows but it wouldn’t work (he didn’t know his mum had swapped it from pin to password) So he pushed the reset button on the front and the pc restarted but he is telling me that everything on the display was large or oversized.
He then turned it off and on again but the same thing happened.
He then went upstairs to get his mum and she’s telling me that when she got back to the pc the screen was black but the pc was on and really hot? To turn it off she held down the power button.
Since I’ve come home I’ve tried:
Different hdmi cables
Different hdmi ports on the GPU
I tried using the hdmi port on the motherboard
I removed the GPU and tried a different port
Removed all dust
Tried using a TV
My components are:
Gigabyte A350 Mother board
Ryzen 5 CPU
1080ti Altus GPU
650w 80 plus gold PSU
16gb Ram
I’m getting no signal still, everything lights up and the fans spin, when I change hdmi ports on the pc while the monitors on the monitor detects the pc because the monitor light turns white but it then goes to no signal and the monitor light goes back to orange, if I swap ports it goes what but does the same again.
Any ideas on what’s happen here and what I need to do please lads? Fuming would be an understatement.
Edit: There’s also no lights on the keyboard and although it lights up and fans spin it feels different if that makes sense? Me and the misses are currently not talking because of this, I going mad sitting here trying to work this out.
TIA
