CPU model is i3 10105f, GPU GTX 1050Ti, built with Prime H410m-e, RAM T force Delta R 2666 at 1x16 GB, motherboard Prime H410m-e, RAM and graphics slots cleaned, battery removed from the case and reinstalled, SSD installed on the PC. The system runs Windows 11 Pro x64. There’s no video display, but the power button blinks. After cleaning, several fixes were tried: CMOS reset, RAM and card slot cleaning, battery removal and reinsertion, GPU swap. We also observed the RAM lights up in about four seconds after turning on the case. Videos are available for reference.

Based on the Asus website, a rapidly blinking power LED indicates a DRAM issue. Consider re-seating RAM modules and checking for dust in the slots. Alternatively, try using RAM from another system. From past experience, a DRAM fault could also stem from a CPU problem, though this is unlikely unless the RAM was removed during cleaning. Hope this assists. P.S., I was planning to joke about the 450W power supply not being sufficient for all the LEDs... but I'm sure that's been mentioned many times before.

He used a vacuum to clean it, but static electricity poses a risk to your parts if you approach too closely.
