What is lighting up at the side? The MSI logo on your GPU or LEDs on the side of the monitor? Did you try removing the GPU and testing with the HDMI out from your motherboard?

I am so sorry for wasting everyone's' times with this.

Also no need to apologize. This stuff happens to even the best system builders sometimes. Just gotta take it slow, one bit at a time, and take frequent breathers to make sure you're not getting worked up over it not working. You'll get this thing hammered out.

Make sure you're putting the board on something that doesn't conduct electricity once you start working on it. The box it came in is ideal if you still have it.
