The final action was restarting the system, which entered Ubuntu's grub and took a long time to boot. After that, I pressed the power button, causing an instant shutdown. Since turning it on now shows a constant white light under the VGA port, it indicates a graphics problem. I removed the graphics card and tested it with another, but the issue persisted. I reset the CMOS for at least ten minutes, checked all connections, reinserted the RAM, and left the CMOS to clear for an hour. I also plan to clean the PC. Are there additional troubleshooting steps you recommend? Do you think the motherboard itself might be faulty? The board is running the latest BIOS, and the GPU was up to date. However, I've tried it with a slightly older GPU and confirmed all cables are properly connected. Motherboard model: B450M PRO-VDH V2 (MS-7A38); CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 1700X Eight Core; RAM: 2 x 8GB DDR4 SDRAM (Crucial); Power Supply: Corsair CX600; GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX1060 3GB; Storage: 1TB SSD, 250GB SSD, 2TB HDD.
The 1060 fans briefly stopped while the 1030 kept running, though both displayed white light problems. The mouse would flash briefly before stopping and the keyboard wouldn’t respond at all. I’m considering a motherboard issue but lack the expertise to confirm. If anyone has tips, please share. Thanks!
