Question Reseating my GPU

[kali180]

So I need some assistance. I removed my old computers GPU which is a NIVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 because I wanted to switch it to another computer. I powered the pc down and removed the card however it would not fit into the other computer so I reseated it back and now it isn't working. I then connected the HDMI cord to the native display port for the computer and it to gave no display. I disconnected the PC and pulled out the GPU to make sure that everything was getting a good connection. Retried NIVIDIA display port did not work but the native display port did. I looked at the device manager and the computer did not detect the GPU was installed. I did some more investigating about the NIVIDIA and thought I would try it reseating it again - shocker it didn't however now the native display is not working either so now I do not have any display. I do not understand how it didn't work, then did, then reverted back to not working. Any thoughts on what could possibly be going on here?

Native display port im assuming you mean igpu from the motherboard? If so, when igpu aka motherboard video stopped working did you try the graphics card video ports then? Not sure what motherboard you have, you should list all specs, but often when a dedicated graphics card is installed that disables igpu. So probably still or was a seating issue, igpu working = gpu not seated, gpu seated = no igpu, unless you can change that in bios. Might have been set in bios for multi monitor between gpu and igpu, if you cleared cmos by any chance then that would have reverted multi monitor to default which is probably disabled.

I mean when I put in the new graphics card I used that to connect to monitor. My computer has another video output that came with the computer, but was unable to use it after I put in the new GPU but when I took out the NIVIDA it allowed me to use the old outlet to see the display. That's what I meant by native.
