My computer was functioning normally but the fans were making a lot of noise. I tried using Easytune to adjust the fan speed, but it didn’t respond and the fan area turned gray. I decided to leave things as they were and closed the program, then restarted the system later. The next morning, when I powered it back on, there was no signal at all. Pressing the restart button didn’t help. I heard faint ticking sounds inside the PC, which led me to suspect a small speaker on the motherboard. After looking online, I found many users reported similar issues after installing Easytune. These programs might have damaged my motherboard and possibly the processor. If I had known about Easytune’s problems, I could have avoided this situation. Now it’s time to consider a new system. PS: please don’t use Easytune and warn others. People new to PC building often fall for such tools without realizing the risks. VID_20221221_131748.mp4 16 Dec, 6.36 am.aac

It seems you might just need to refresh the CMOS settings and reinstall Windows, avoiding a full system replacement...

appears to be a CMOS reset procedure. simply unplug the computer, remove the battery, hold the power button for 1-2 minutes, and it should reset.

Shut down the PC, disconnect the PSU, unplug it from power. Remove the CMOS battery for half an hour. Press the case power button for thirty seconds, then reinsert the battery and attempt to boot. You should be able to enter BIOS.

I confirmed it by taking the battery out for an entire night, restarting it with the power button, and reinserting it the next morning. Still, the clicking noise persisted when trying to boot.
