    It works thru HDMI on tv in recovery assistant but after resetting password and restarting it goes to screen that doesn't show up on tv and no keys are lit while you can hear the computer is running. I'm at a lost as restarting SMC or PRAM brings up recovery assistant on tv but nothing after restarting.

    Of course I restored from a backup after upgrading to catalina and downgraded back to sierra due to software incompatability. Interestingly, I didn't do it fully correctly so my recovery partition is now a catalina recovery as opposed to sierra recovery. Should I be concerned about that? What won't work with my mac?

When I use Shift + Option + Command + R it starts to load and then the computer shuts itself down as well. When I do Command + R the progress bar appears but even after several hours of “loading” it never opens up disk utility.
