PC Wont boot (HELP)

[thrilledtear]

I built a computer around 2 ish years ago now and  its been running great until today....

 

I went to boot my rig to play some Pubg and Overwatch, and to my surprise pressing the power button did not make my system engage in any boot sequence what so ever...

 

I checked all the front panel connections and everything checked out, except still no boot. The motherboard has a indication LED that it is powered so I unplugged the Power Switch header and tried to start a boot using my screwdriver to complete the circuit, and to my surprise still no boot! What could this mean for my PC ...  

 

PLEASE HELP I DONT WANT MY BABY TO BE DEAD

psu? slight chance there's a problemo there

Start with the very basic stuff (this stuff sounds mundane but is easy to miss)

 

Ensure the machine is plugged in to the wall

Make sure the wall outlet is switched on

Make sure the psu switch is on

Make sure the cable from the wall to the PSU works

 

Next try a cmos reset

1) Unplug the power lead from the PSU

2) Remove the battery from the motherboard

3) Wait for a few minutes

4) Replace everything and see if it boots

5) If anyone tells you to hold the power button down ignore them, it's an unnecessary myth.

Hold down the power button.
