Hey everyone. Suddenly my PC stopped turning on whenever I connected any USB device to any port. As long as I unplugged everything and plugged it back in, it worked fine. Now it just won't power at all—no lights blinking. I think a Windows update (probably Windows 10) might have caused this. But if you're sure about that, could the PC still boot? The motherboard is an MSI Z170 Krait Gaming model, and it seems to use an NVMe SSD. Someone with similar issues might help if you can share more details.

It seems you're referring to a low-power PSU. Could you specify the make or any distinguishing features? It might not meet the ideal wattage requirements.

It seems the issue isn't with the Corsair HX850i, thank you for letting me know!
