Post Body

Title explains most of the issue. I had shipped my PC back home from college via UPS. However, when I got it today they fucked it up terribly. The case door was open, my GPU had been disconnected from the PCI-E port and was laying on top of my PSU which had somehow moved to the middle of the case despite the case being upright. In addition to that, the inside was filled up very static packing peanuts. I put everything back in its place and all the fans are spinning, and peripherals seem to be getting power. However, the video out is not working at all. I know the cord and monitor are fine because I tested them, the GPU is firmly inside the PCI-E slot, and I honestly cannot think of anything else. The HDD light on the case doesn't light up which leads me to believe the HDD is busted however I can't get into my BIOS either, which makes me believe that my mobo could be fried from the packing peanuts.

View of insides (Sorry its so messy, non-modular PSU :( )

Is there any hope for fixing this or do I need to buy a new motherboard?
