Hello! Im having a problem with my system. I cannot get my monitor working on my pc but I tested the monitor on a different pc and it worked. I even swapped graphics cards and the monitor wouldnt respond to it normally it would say that I should connect my pci e cable on the 2nd graphics card but it didnt it was just fully black. Specs MSO GTX 950, AMD-FX6300, Asus M5a78l-m lx 9 motherboard, 8gb of ram

Are you able to try your original GPU on another computer?

Have you tried another known working video cable?
Nevermind I got my monitor working with my pc buy now it displays: USB Device over current status detected system will shutdown in 15 seconds. Altough there are 0 usb devices plugged in

Here is an older link from within this Forum:

And a second link that is likely to be very relevant:

You can easily find similar links by googling "usb device over current status".

Overall I suspect physical damage in or around one of the USB ports. Metal to frame contact and shorting out.

Power down, unplug, open the case.

Inspect all of the ports inside and out using a bright flashlight and magnifying glass if necessary. Especially any USB ports near the video connections.
