Hey, it’s not a huge concern right now but I accidentally unplugged my power cord before actually turning it off. Now most things seem normal (though I’m not sure how to confirm everything is fine). I wasn’t running any programs when it happened as I was getting ready to shut it down and go to sleep. But once I turned it back on, all the LED lights on the six fans won’t activate and the color-changing button on my case isn’t responding either. I know this might not be a big issue for many, but I really care about my PC—it’s my first one and I’m 22 years old. If anyone has any advice, please share!

Do the RGB fans operate via software settings? Is the fan/RGB hub linked to the motherboard? Inspect the connections on the fan/RGB hub. You didn’t note any moves, but it’s worth confirming.

Stopping power abruptly doesn’t damage anything unless it happened during a Windows or worse BIOS upgrade. It seems your adjustment shifted the PC slightly and the RGB headers might have come loose (the design isn’t very sturdy, they don’t stay firmly when you sit down).
