• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.

hi, new to ssf and pc builing in general (though i have replaced every compenent in a pc at some point or another). Built everything fine powered up ok and installing windows, got to setting up networks then got a blue screen saying windows had shut down to protect the pc make sure any new hardware etc was installed properly, ive had this screen before, usually fixed by a reboot, so i rebooted, now everything powers up but nothing appears on the monitor, tested monitor and graphics card and both function fine, hdd and dvd both have power and appear to be functioning. any suggestions on other things i should try or what might be wrong?
