It seems the device has a blink-and-repeat behavior. You might want to skip the cooler and reattach it. Thermal paste isn't needed for this process.
I kept the cooler unchanged in the same scenario.

I set up the system in December 2020 with an i3 9100f GTX 1650, 16 GB DDR4, H310M M.II Xeon M.2 SSD, and two HDDs. It functioned properly until now. I removed all dust and dirt using a fine brush. Swapped the PSU since it was identical. Disassembled each component one by one and verified if the PC was running, but I still couldn’t get any response.
