PC Fails to Start Despite Motherboard Replacement
Hello everyone, this is my first post. My dad and I chose to assemble a PC together, but it hasn't started booting or showing any activity. It's still under warranty and can be returned.

Here’s the troubleshooting we performed:
- Updated BIOS for the Gigabyte board (now returned)
- Tested the power supply using a guide (before the multimeter steps)
- Reinstalled RAM, GPU, and power connectors on both motherboards
- Tried connecting the power button pins on both boards
We searched online, asked AI, and went through every step, but we couldn’t find a solution. If anyone knows what might be wrong, please let us know.
