Hello Braaandy,

I am from Dell Social Media and Community.

If the system is turning on and you are not able to get any video on the system, there could be one or more technical issues with the system.

Try connecting an external monitor to the system to verify if there is any video displayed on the monitor.

Follow the link below to run a basic hardware test on your system. If you get any error code, you may associate it to the list in the following link.

If all the tests pass, follow the link below, which will help you troubleshoot and fix the issue.
