    PC won't show video, literally no matter what is done, LITERALLY!

    I’ll explain in order of events:

    January: I buy a new graphics card rx580 to upgrade from my gt 610, once I installed the drivers the pc showed no video. I tried resetting the BIOS, reinstalling windows, change the GPU back, check cables and monitor, check power supply, check connections, check plugs, booting without a GPU. No video, but the pc runs, beeps and fans spin. Windows even opened because when I clicked it made the error sound.

    March: I got a new GPU, an GTX 1650. No video again, some attempts from last time. No video

    May: I got a new set of motherboard, CPU and ram. Put the GTX 1650 in, no video, I tried using the internal graphics of the CPU, still nothing.

    I’d would be stripping the whole rig down and reassembling on a piece of cardboard.
    Taking the time to clean and investigate each part.
    Only reconnect the core essentials, just enough to get a signal on the screen - so no keyboard or mouse, no boot drive(yes, no drives at all), no peripherals, no DVD, only one stick on memory, no GPU (if the CPU and mobo support that).
    At this stage we simply want to get a signal, any kind of signal, to show on the screen.

    If we can get that, then we can add the boot drive and keyboard and try getting into BIOS.
