Little bit of backstory: I own a dell 3020 sfff and decided to upgrade it. I got a new gpu,psu, and ssd. First time ever pc booted no problem, so I powered it off and moved it.Lo and behold no monitor display! I’m using a hdmi to vga adapter btw and yes I’m powering it

Sorry for spelling and grammar typing off an phone rn

Doesn't change anything. It's an improper signal conversion..... The display doesn't support HDMI?

I went ahead and got a new monitor with HDMI but get the same problem. I had My old monitor plugged in to the igpu, with the external gpu plugged in but only the igou booted
