Windows 7 No Display at all - Radeon R9 270x

[wildilwh09]

Hello all

Firstly sorry if this is posted in the wrong place, I am not exactly sure what my problem is.

After downloading Malwarebytes and doing a scan, my computer came up with Bad Image errors, and wouldn't let me connect to the internet even though it said I was connected. However I transferred a virus detection program via a USB, ran it, and my computer was fixed.

However after that, my TV (Connected to my computers Radeon R9 270x via HMDI) was displaying "No Signal." I then tried connecting it to my motherboard via a VGA cable from my PC to my TV, still displaying "No Signal". After I tried my spare old monitor and connected it to my motherboard via VGA, this was displaying "Going to sleep".

I've came to the conclusion (that is probably wrong), that my Graphics card driver is not updated. However this would not explain why my computer wouldn't display an image on my TV or Monitor whilst connected to my motherboard.

I have downloaded the latest Driver onto a CD, however I am struggling to use the CD when I can't see anything on my computer.

I am also able to use my PC, I just can not see anything. So if I press the Windows Key, Right, Down, Enter, Enter, it would shut down my PC. Or CTRL+ALT+DEL, Press Down x6, then right, I can also switch my PC off.

Thanks for all your help.
Regards. Lee.

It appears that you're encountering a display issue where your monitor and TV are not showing anything despite being connected to your computer. This can be a frustrating problem, but there are a few steps you can take to troubleshoot and potentially resolve the issue: 1. Check the Connections: - Ensure that the cables are securely connected at both ends (computer and TV/monitor). - Try using different cables (HDMI, VGA) to rule out any potential cable issues. 2. Hardware Checks: - Restart your computer and check if the BIOS/UEFI screen appears on the monitor or TV. If it does, the issue might be related to the operating system or drivers. - Test your computer with another monitor or TV to see if the problem is specific to your current display devices. 3. Graphics Settings: - If using a dedicated GPU, ensure that the GPU is properly seated in the PCIe slot. - If your CPU has integrated graphics, try connecting the monitor to the motherboard output to see if the display works. 4. Safe Mode and Display Settings: - Boot your computer into Safe Mode by pressing F8 or Shift + F8 during startup. This can help in diagnosing if the issue is related to drivers or software conflicts. - Once in Safe Mode, you can check the display settings and update or reinstall graphics drivers. 5. Graphics Driver Update: - If you suspect outdated drivers as a cause, you can update the drivers using another device to download the latest drivers for your graphics card. - You can also try pressing the Windows key + P to cycle through the display options (e.g., extend, duplicate, second screen only). 6. Professional Help: - If these steps don't resolve the issue, consider seeking help from a professional technician or a computer repair service. It's essential to troubleshoot step by step to identify the root cause of the display problem. Feel free to try these steps and let me know if you need further assistance.
