**** up

Basically I was in the process of getting ready to do a clean install of W10 which is on my ssd.
I backed up files and then formatted my hdd which just had games on.
Turned off, disconnected the hdd and turned back on, tried hitting delete/f12 and nothing but a black screen and monitor saying no signal.
No beeps or anything.
Any ideas?

Nah switched on all working happy, transferred some files to USB stick (photos) formatted the hard drive. Quick check I'd got everything then shut down.
Open the case disconnected hard drive which is on the left side. The gfx card is on the opposite side of the case. Just no signal at all. All fans simmering away, orange light on motherboard led (Asus Prime z270)
I5 7600k
8gb Corsair vegeance
Xfx Rx480 8gb
Samsung ssd
Wd 1tb hdd

Got it working. Well I had plug it into the onboard graphics on the motherboard. Used the hdmi port on the motherboard and using onboard graphics, I'm assuming I have to install gfx card drivers and then plug it into hdmi on gfx card and it will work?

Still got a problem. It displays normally but then when I restart I get the no signal, restart again. Plug in and out still nothing. Then get restoring back to original windows. So can't get the windows update working.
