Hello, your build has been functioning well for over a year, but you experienced a coolant leak from the CPU cooler recently. After cleaning with cotton swabs and rubbing alcohol, the components dried, yet the system still won’t boot. Your setup includes an Intel i7 8th gen processor, ASUS Prime Z370-A motherboard, 32 GB RAM, and a 700-watt power supply—several details might be missing. The RGB lights are on, fans operate normally, but the red CPU warning light remains active. What should you do next?
