Power issue since thermal paste replacement

[NeatSquidYT]

Hi,

So I changed my thermal paste on my ADT system (sig) and since then, the motherboard has power as its LED turns on, but I can't seem to actually power on the system. At first I was thinking maybe some thermal paste somehow got into the pin holes on the mobo, but the graphics card and Heatsink fan don't turn on either. I've taken out the front panel connector, and still the same issue with a screwdriver.

While replacing it, I did take care with ESD with touching a power supply that's on at the wall, but off on the PSU AND taking my socks off AND even rolling up my sleeves.

Any help appreciated.

TL;DR You lazy ass

Is everything plugged in correctly? (4/8 pin CPU connector/20/24pin motherboard connector)

Both the 4 pin and 20 pin are plugged in

Got it working I plugged in the power front panel connector again and it miraculously worked.
