I noticed my RAM wasn’t set up in dual-channel mode, so I repositioned it. When the case was open, I cleaned out the dust, which could be the issue. After turning it on, it functioned properly until a few minutes passed, then it stopped completely. The monitor went dark and both the keyboard and mouse lost their illumination. At the same time, the fans spun at high speed, but the power button light stayed lit. I’ve tried restarting it repeatedly, but the problem persists. My concerns are a defective power supply or a shorted motherboard caused by the vacuum process. Do you have any advice or information that might assist?

No, I haven't performed any bench testing yet.

I mean I'm clarifying your question directly. Could you provide more details?

I disabled it for a few days then reinitialized the BIOS. It looks like the issue was resolved.
