9/10 times I start the computer there is no boot device

Thank you for looking at this, you are amazing for just checking this out.
So I have been struggling with this for about a year. When I start my computer up one of 4 things tends to happen.
# black screen/no video signal detected and the computer will shut off immediately after pressing the power button. Very little sound from the computer.
# black screen/no video signal detected and the computer will require the 5-second hold to power off, sound is louder.
# bios screen pops up telling me I need to fix my boot device, there are no boot devices.
# The computer starts up normally.
This used to take one or two tries but now is a 10-15 minute ordeal of powering it on and off until it works.
What I have done:
# checked to make sure the hard drives are connected properly.
# Changed the cmos battery
# updated the ssd
# updated the motherboard
# replaced the power supply
# used a different monitor
# sacrificed a goat to the gods of pc repair
Nothing has fixed this so far. Any help would be so greatly appreciated. I may even name my next child after you if you can help in any way!
