I cleaned my PC with an air compressor and then reassembled everything. It still won’t work. I’ve tried removing the CMOS, reseating the RAM, using an eraser on the RAM, and plugging everything back in. I didn’t find a monitor issue because I tested it on a TV and different cables, but it’s still not functioning. What should I do next?

Everything seems connected properly. The fans were attached to the board during cleaning.

I verified the CPU fan and motherboard cables are all attached to the same location on the PSU, and they’re connected correctly.

Using fans connected to power may cause the board to fail. Start it with the least number of devices attached.

I removed it from the case and connected only the necessary parts. Still, the CPU fan spun and the GPU worked but no sound was heard.

Check if your board features diagnostic indicators or sounds. Understand the behavior triggered by pressing the power switch. Confirm whether all items are cleared from the No POST list.

I attempted the no post list but it didn’t work, so I removed parts and reassembled it. It functioned correctly this time. Took me about 8 hours to fix it, thank you!
