Turn off psu while pc is booted

[Mctech]

Hello, i have just finished building my first pc. However, there is a red led that is bright that is on my motherboard. It reads cpu and has plus and a minus sign. What does this mean?

 

Also if my pc is booted, but wont turn on, can i turn off rhe psu to try to boot again? I tried turning off the pc with the power switch on the case. It wont work. My pc wont go to the bios as well

Info on your system would be helpful, especially which mobo, cpu, and RAM you are using.

First of all, what motherboard is this?

Secondly, yes you can turn the PC off from the power supply. Sometimes the power button just doesn't work. I had a problem like this a couple days ago; the bios was gone as well. You should try inserting bootable media and just spamming F12, F10, and F2 to see if you can boot into any usable thing.

Like what they said I need Motherboard, CPU, RAM, and PSU no diagnostic if I don't have that Info

Ok, so from the looks of it, those LED's are troubleshooting lights, and if the CPU one is on, that appears to indicate that the CPU is possibly not inserted properly or broken. Read through your manual that came with the motherboard to confirm the normal operation of those lights.

As far as turning off the power supply, that's essentially the same as pulling the plug on your computer, so its totally fine to do as long as your note doing it mid-bios update or something.

BOY! the most important thing I need to know is your power supply

BTW, here is a link to the manual for your motherboard in case you don't have a physical copy of it. https://ca.msi.com/Motherboard/support/H110M-PRO-VD.html#down-manual
