I used a hair dryer to blow some dust of my PC and now the monitor seems to not recognize the computer anymore, it's a old 2006 PC that i mainly use to work,
I tried to swap monitors, cables and even tried to connect with the onboard gpu istead of the offboard one
Help me /g/ im to poor to afford a new computer.

Seems like the dust was the element that conducted information across hardware.

Take everything apart and clean it with compressed air. And put a pencil or something in the fans so you don't overspin them.
The same thing happened to me the other week when I quickly used a brush to get the dust out.
I think I accidently forced some fine dust particles between the contacts of the graphics card because I was getting graphical failures and stuff for a while until I cleaned it more carefully.

You have money for smartphone with camera and money for internet on your smartphone but no money for a decent computer - you should kill yourself.
This belongs in the stupid questions general, but I am going to say that they make compressed air for a reason and you shouldnt use a hair dryer because of static electricity (?)

That's probably why re-seating the RAM worked. Static build up on the motherboard.
>hair dryer
You killed your PC with ESD.
