Hey there! How are you all doing today?
Hey, I see you're dealing with an Asus Prime H410M-E. The orange blinking light on the back of the motherboard is definitely a sign something’s off. After you replaced the CPU and GPU and removed a few components, it seems like the connections might be a bit loose or misaligned. The specs you mentioned point to an Intel i5 10400, GT 630, and a 500W PSU, which is solid. The SSD and HDD are likely in the back, and the RAM should be installed as per the manual. The case is probably a standard Thermaltake model, but you mentioned uncertainty about the exact model. Just imagine the board with all the cables coming out, and the orange light staying on without any booting into OS—maybe it’s stuck in a failed state. You might want to double-check the RAM placement and ensure all pins are correctly seated before powering it back on.
Back on the motherboard, those orange lights above the Ethernet port might be there. If a BIOS error code appears, it’s likely not on the back but inside the board. You could try reseating the RAM or testing with a single stick to see if it works. Also, make sure you reconnect the CPU power connector after removing it.
