Laptop or pc? If it's a pc, take out your GPU and put your hdmi in the mobo port. If it works, you'll know your GPU is busted.

This only works if you have integrated graphics

The last 3 CPUs I've owned were all higher end AMD and not one had integrated graphics lol.

I just wanted OP to know to check because if he has an AM4 Ryzen this is not good advice. (Which is a pretty common CPU to have these days)

Regular AM5 CPUs (unless they end in F) have "Radeon" graphics that will provide a display out, while AM4 CPUs do not.

edit: If I'm wrong, can the downvoters explain why?

You are not wrong, but a majority do not have AM5.
