No power connected after installing the new motherboard (though it didn't work even when I swapped the old one)
No power connected after installing the new motherboard (though it didn't work even when I swapped the old one)
I've faced problems with my PC for some time, mainly a white dash appearing on the left top screen. I tried all fixes but gave up and swapped the motherboard. After that change, the white line reappeared again, but after rearranging RAM in certain slots it disappeared. Still, it won't boot properly. Your setup details are noted for reference.
You need to proceed carefully. Since you're on the Windows installation screen with the SSD unplugged, restarting now might not work properly. Wait until the installation completes and the system boots normally before trying any further steps. If issues persist, consider checking the installation progress or seeking additional support.
