Acer Aspire ZC-605 display

Hi! I've been trying to figure out why my Aspire ZC-605 wont show anything in Windows. It POSTs, but then it boots into Windows 10 (makes startup sound), and I can't see a thing. I can sign in though, so that shows that it might be the display or Windows. When I signed in, I heard my skype start up also, so that works. I dont understand why it just wont show anything in Windows. Oh, and FYI, I do not have any display ports (VGA, HDMI, etc). Thanks!

    try this:
    at boot press ALT+F10 or after entering your password to login, keep pressing Shift key, this will start Acer/windows recovery.
    From the Recovery screen
    Click on Troubleshoot.
    Click on Advanced Options.
    Click on Startup Settings.
    Click on Restart.
    The PC will now reboot to the Startup Settings screen.
    Press 4 to Enable Safe Mode as prompted.

     

    once in Safe mode, go to Device manager, click on Display adapters, right click on your VGA and choose uninstall(tick to uninstall software too).

    reboot normally and check if black/blank screen is fixed.

    That didn't seem to work. I couldn't see anything still, even when on the Recovery screen.

    do you see the Acer logo at boot?

    if you press Del key are you able to enter BIOS and see it?

    can you try to connect an external monitor and check if you have any image?
