Don't even know where to begin

I turned my PC on this morning and there was no display on my monitor, I plug a hdmi cable into my mobo to the monitor and that doesn't work. Turns out the monitor power lead is broke, no biggie got a new one.

Now it will only show a display from onboard graphics not GPU, I check device manager and my GPU is under the "hidden items" I click uninstall device+drivers. Restart PC, it boots from GPU using HDMI but only as a generic device, I installed the drivers again and it works fine. I restart, switch to DP and it no longer displays, I switch back to HDMI and still no longer displays?

Help me, please :)
 
Solution
The problem related to the MB, GPU, or the PSU.
  1. For the MB, update the BIOS, if the MB does not have newer one.
  2. For GPU, test it in other PC, if you can. Or try other GPU.
  3. For PSU, if it can't handle the GPU, you will get problem.

If you can these, and you still have the problem, you are better to go to local PC shop.
