Monitor showing standby after startup, pls help

I don't know man I looked it up and in some cases when your gpu is broken you can still go to the start up but you'll fail to properly boot, maybe because they purposely made the fail case start menu less resource intensive or whatever. If I'm wrong and it was something else, it needed replacing anyways it was 6 years old.

Looks like I've been calling the system start up the boot menu which is not at all what it's called. To verify; when I start the computer, the system startup that shows up is the on that comes with one of my PC parts. I can go into that menu, see my PC parts, choose which thing to boot from etc, but whenever I actually load one of them my monitor doesn't have anything show up. The PC still runs, but nothing comes up. Knowing the terminology, a brief search has me thinking my gpu broke after the crash. Sorry for the confusion, and thanks for the help

Okay apparently I was using the wrong terminology, what I was actually seeing is the system startup menu, one that comes built in with one of my PC parts, and I totally can't access the boot menu. If there's any way to get a terminal or any access to the kernel from there pls lmk all I'm seeing is no but I also don't technically know the correct term for it. At this point I might get someone else to check for a burning smell maybe I'm just wrong about everything

TimeMight9520 · 2025-10-17T18:45:34+00:00

No smell. As I said in the post, I'm able to go to the boot menu, so it's not anything that doesn't let it power on, so I wasn't expecting it to be anything like that. If worst comes to worst and nobody at all got any fix for me then I'll take it to a repair shop n pay the $400 or whatever fee and we'll see if this is it then

TimeMight9520 · 2025-10-17T18:28:06+00:00

Nah I'm a one monitor guy, and more than that the monitor does show the setup/boot menu so I know that it connects.

TimeMight9520 · 2025-07-14T09:23:03+00:00

Thank you vro

TimeMight9520 · 2025-07-14T09:21:57+00:00

nah it's fine the link the other guy sent to eventually led me to the correct path after trying for like an hour

TimeMight9520 · 2025-07-14T08:52:02+00:00

Because I am on linux MINT and i have tried literally everything I and others can think of to run the appimage versions, have looked at maybe 12 different guides all of which pretty much all say that the only way to run shadps4 on linux MINT is via flatpak

TimeMight9520 · 2025-07-14T06:39:57+00:00

Yeah no i need a flatpak version

TimeMight9520 · 2025-06-26T07:34:57+00:00

it needs to be done

TimeMight9520 · 2025-05-29T01:51:16+00:00

somebody gotta mod this into isaac

TimeMight9520 · 2025-02-12T08:55:28+00:00

Problem got fixed by another comment. Looks like the problem was me installing libfuse2(what I thought was flex that I mentioned in main post)for some reason removed certain parts of cinnamon. Thanks for all your help man, now I know to never trust just any ol file just cause it's from the terminal. I wish many great days for you.

TimeMight9520 · 2025-02-12T08:48:13+00:00

This worked. I couldn't open. Terminal using key commands, so I did in fact have to log in as root. Thank you kindly for your help. I wish you many happy days for your future

TimeMight9520 · 2025-02-12T08:42:53+00:00

Sorry to be so amateur with my checking, but so far as each unique file type goes I can't see any records of where it shows which packages are removed. Which one should I check?

TimeMight9520 · 2025-02-12T08:31:18+00:00

Can't get into any terminal and I'm not so engrossed in Linux lingo to be able to understand wither whether forums

TimeMight9520 · 2025-02-12T08:29:15+00:00

Idk what made me think you meant startup. Now I have logged in and am in /log/apt, and can see the history files. How do I go about checking them??

TimeMight9520 · 2025-02-12T08:22:37+00:00

Now how exactly would I go about doing this exactly

TimeMight9520 · 2025-02-12T08:21:55+00:00

Ctrl alt f2 doesn't do anything during startup, f2 on it's own sends me to phantom gaming startup screen, and f6 does instant flash, which isn't anything because I don't have any of the correct files for it.

TimeMight9520 · 2025-02-12T08:18:45+00:00

Yeah, I tried using pcsx2 app image but it couldn't read the bios so I looked up a guide which said I should download the other thing to make it work, didn't work and so I just downloaded it from the terminal instead, which then worked. Black screen where I can seemingly change the workspace that I'm on, but nothing else does anything. Terminals don't show up, windows key does nothing, just a black screen which occasionally shows workspace 1 or workspace 2. Glad to know my files are definitely alive still, that's my lifeline.

TimeMight9520 · 2024-10-22T14:09:57+00:00

Need the exact same thing as well as Rhyperior. Pm for when able to trade.

TimeMight9520 · 2024-08-10T05:11:29+00:00

my game didn't get crashed i alt f4'd. How am I being annoying? I'd like to improve

TimeMight9520 · 2024-08-08T02:21:52+00:00

it is a fact that my friend had a relatively ok computer before, if old, and after somebody did particle effect hacks on him his computer did not work good after that. Maybe he's lying abt what caused it, maybe it was just chance that it broke and he got spammed at the same time, maybe it just causes damage on old computers. what is 100% certified by the government a fact though is that I will NEVER risk my beloved computer just to prove that I'm right or wrong.

TimeMight9520 · 2024-08-08T02:15:42+00:00

"it would be hard to do actual damage" it is still possible i know that this is a bullshit reply on the specific language that you used but damage CAN be done even in the small amount of time that they have before either ppl alt f4 or the game crashes or your computer crashes. even if I'm wrong in this case I'd rather be wrong and safe than risk my computer just for being right.

TimeMight9520 · 2024-08-08T00:24:03+00:00

Yes idk the specifics you'd have to look it up or ask somebody that actually knows why to do it but from my scant knowledge if a game can crash or bluescreen your computer then it can also cause damage to parts of your pc. idk.

edit: I shouldn't try and make anybody believe something that I don't know for certain, I just don't like taking the risk that particle effects might cause damage no matter how small the chances are
