New PC got Windows installed successfully, but it shut down unexpectedly and is now unable to start.
I built my first PC from scratch today. After finishing the assembly (with plenty of errors), I installed Windows 11 Home. It kept asking for internet connection, so I had to pause for a call. When I returned, it had shut down and isn’t booting now. I managed to install Windows until all fans and lights came on. After turning it on, the fans spun fast then slowed down. There was a random red blinking on all four LED indicators for a moment, then nothing. I checked the power cable connections and tried resetting CMOS by removing the battery for about five minutes. My PC specs are: AMD Ryzen 5 5600X, ASRock B550M PG Riptide KLEVV, DDR4 PC28800, 3600 MHz, 2x8GB RAM, 12GB DDR6, PCIe Gen4x4, 750W, 80+ Gold certified. I’m a complete beginner and haven’t touched a computer before, so feel free to ask for any details. Thanks!
