Hi guys,
So I built my first build 3 days ago out of parts from Microcenter. Everything was working fine, I downloaded Windows 10 Pro today and everything seemed to work just fine. I left GTA V and Google Chrome running and I put my computer to sleep for about an hour. When I came back, I pressed my keyboard and tried to wake it from sleep. All of the fans turned on, the few LEDs turned on, but then it all shut down, and I can't power it back on.
My mouse which has an LED in it is lit up when plugged in, the green light on the mobo lights up when plugged in. When I try to boot, nothing happens. Everything was working fine earlier this afternoon, and I can't seem to fix the problem.
Specs: i5 6500 Asus z170 mobo of some kind Gigabyte RX 470 (bought used, excellent condition) 2x8GB Crucial Ballistix Sport Ram Toshiba 240 gb ssd/toshiba 1tb hdd Some corsair carbide case.
If you have any questions/need more info/a picture, please ask, I'm really frustrated as this is my first build, every game ran perfectly and now I'm stuck with this.

    start troubleshooting, theres loads of vids on how to troubleshoot correctly, IMO start with taking out your graphics card and start the computer up then. (with the hdmi cable directly into the motherboard. JayZtwocents recently made a vid on how to troubleshoot. i'd recommend you watch that...

     

    also, why the Z170 when you have no overclockable CPU? just wondering.

     

    hope i helped
