(I have a custom built computer, there was just no other place to put this)
I came home yesterday to find my computer turned off. After some looking, turns out the power supply had failed. I went out and got a higher wattage power supply, one that should suffice. It put it in, and my computer did turn on.
Only issue is that now nothing will come up on my monitor. And I don't know why. I've taken out my GPU and run it off of the built-in graphics, with no avail. I just don't have any idea what the problem is.
Any suggestions?
Question about
General computer issue
Have you tried using another monitor? If that doesn't work, it may be that the power fluctuations from the PSU damaged a component of your motherboard. Are you receiving any beep codes on boot-up?

What I like to do to test between a video issue and mb issue is pull the RAM and turn it on. If you get beeps your mb is still working, if not you can be pretty sure it's dead.

Did you plug back in the integrated graphics? If not, it will not recognise it as a device. Also check to make sure that your other GPU works. Try it on another computer.
