No signal on Monitor.

hello good day. I ran into a problem while trying to reinstall windows 10 on my pc. Firstly it wont not allow me to install it, it kept saying cant install please reboot. So i tried to reboot into safe mode, However after doing that i cant get an image on my monitor i know the monitor is working i tried it on a new pc. I tried remove Ram, re plugged GPU and CPU. Not seeing an error lights on the motherboard. however I am getting HDD light activity an help would be appreciated.

Are you trying to install from a old windows version? If so i recommend you restart the computer with the install drive or disc and install from there.

ah the problem is that the monitor isnt showing any image now, so i cant access the bios. the thing i did was try to restart in safe mode. now everything starts, keyboard mouse lights up. but no image on monitor.

 

[nickbachu]

Then I'm lost because you would have access to the bios before been able to actually get into safe mode

 

[bredjinn]

hmm then that would seem to be a motherboard problem then?

 

[nickbachu]

No it would seem as a setting error. Try updating the bios

 

[bredjinn]

well am not sure how to update it now, as i cant see anything on the monitor. The monitor power led just keeps flashing, but the monitor is working on another pc i tired. This whole problem happen after i tried to boot into safe mode.

Take the cable out that is running from true motherboard to the hard drives. This should allow you to boot and see the bios and update it.
