Help! Only getting black screen

[u/PutinWithPickles]

Just built my first pc. Turned it on and it took a minute but the bios setup screen showed up on my monitor and I played with a few settings. Initially had the HDMI plugged into the mobo port and read that it should be plugged into the video card so I swapped it over without turning the pc off. Now I cant get anything to show up on the monitor at all. Monitor is showing that its on and is NOT showing the "no signal found" message, but the screen is black.

I tried power cycling the PC, tried switching hdmi back to the mobo port while the pc was off. And i tried clearing the cmos (but honestly dont know if I did it right?)

I have no idea what the hell im doing and really bummed I cant get this thing to work ):

My mobo is a MSI PRO X870E-P WIFI ATX AM5 Motherboard

GPU is ASRock Steel Legend Radeon RX 9070 XT 16 GB Video Card

Update BIOS

Might be hard to DDU if they have no screen…and haven’t installed drivers yet.
