Hello, recently took my case apart to clean out some dust from the side panels, however when I closed it back up the computer wouldn’t boot.
I started by replugging cables and removing my graphics card - as well as rearranging, reseating and removing my RAM.
My computer would turn on when RAM was removed, however I can’t get a video signal without it. I used my mates spare RAM to see if the RAM was faulty, but again it didn’t boot.
When holding down the power button, the on off loop was stopped, but the BAT1 cmos light flashed - so I reset the CMOS, removing the battery multiple times whilst powered off, as well as trying to jump the CMOS. But still no luck.
Finally I’ve checked the build with another psu (taking apart my mates computer poor sod) still to no avail.
Because ive tried all these things I’m assuming there’s something wrong with my motherboard/cpu - considering buying a new one unless anyone has any ideas, cheers
