I was chillin watching fishing videos then I accidently knocked over a febreze can onto my computer, it kinda froze for a second then it just turned off and restarted without video. I took out the GPU, ram, and all the hard drives, I plugged it the video cord into the internal graphics and still no video. Any suggestions on what could've happened? I made sure all the cables didn't somehow get knocked loose but still no video it ends up restarting if I leave my pc on longer the 5m :(

 

Specs: 

CPU- i7 7700k

GPU- Gigabyte 1060 6gb

MoBo- Asus Mini ATX (can't find the name)

RAM- Corsair Vengeance LPX 16gb

I definitely thought that said "freezie" as in a slushy drink... that would have been much worse.  I thought you were trolling for a moment.

But, in addition to reseating the CPU, it is possible you knocked loose the 20 pin power connector on your board.  They are pretty hard ot seat in the first place, feel like they are clicked in when they really aren't.

It must be true, I read it on the internet...

Alright! I went and bought new thermal paste and I tried to reseat my processor, it worked! Sorry for the late reply I had to work and goto the store, but when I was reseating it, it looked like a pin wasn't straight but it still turned on!

Honestly I don't think that was the problem thank you though! Any idea on why I had to reseat it? For some odd reason it seamed like the cpu cooler was loose and it was sliding around too!
