I am using the newest version of Elementary OS (as of 24 Sep 2023) using a HP 250 G5 and whenever i turn on my linux computer, it just shows a black screen with backlight, but no black line or anything. It was working not too long ago, i finished the installation of Elementary OS after attempting to use another OS (PearOS, which failed) and it told me to remove the USB, then nothing happened. I turned off pc and turned on again and the GRUB menu appears, i open Elementary OS and black screen. Now, not even GRUB appears, just black screen with backlight ON.

This may be helpful with anyone with the same issue this may be the issue. You know the OS is running and the screen but there’s no output? Dead GPU.
