So I woke up this afternoon to find out my computer wasn't turning on properly. When I pressed the power button, the lights would turn on, the hard drives would start screeching, the GPU fans would start spinning, and everything else was normal. But no signal was detected by the screen. The CPU temp indicator on the motherboard (MSI Z170 Gaming Titanium Edition) showed 00. Since everything else is working fine, and I've tried everything (removed graphics card, removed RAM, tried different cables to the monitor, clearing CMOS, etc.), I'm assuming it's the CPU that isn't initialising or something. The CPU is a Skylake i7 6700K.

 

Help?

 

Also, in the past the computer would not turn on when I got to it the next day, but it would magically turn on later on in the night or the next day with no issues.

IMO, you should get that checked. I mean, this system you have should not be gambled if it will start up or not. Also, a guide that helped me was a video from JayzTwoCents, I know that we are in the linustechtips.com site, but this could help you.
