Issue with PC startup following unintentional power failure.
Issue with PC startup following unintentional power failure.
I have my computer connected to an outlet with a temporary extension cord. Both the power cord and monitor plug are attached to the extension cord. I shook the desk, which caused the cord to fall and broke the connection to the PC, resulting in it shutting off. After reattaching the extension cord, I inspected the connections but found nothing loose. When I pressed the power button, it didn’t turn on. I tried a few more times, and it briefly turned on before shutting off again. After adjusting the power cord, it finally worked. I’m concerned about possible damage, especially to the SSD, since the device shut off while booting which might affect the boot record.
When sharing a troubleshooting thread, it's standard to provide your complete system details. List them as follows:
CPU:
CPU cooler:
Motherboard:
Ram:
SSD/HDD:
GPU:
PSU:
Chassis:
OS:
Monitor:
Include the age of the PSU along with its make and model. Also mention the current BIOS version for your motherboard.
You also have another thread where you mentioned not knowing the make/model, which seems unusual.
