I have a family PC here to repair. The problem started with the machine failing to power on, requiring multiple attempts to press the power button before it finally worked—but after a few months it stopped completely. I've already tried disconnecting the front connector and shorting the startpin to get a connection. No luck there either. I also removed the CMOS battery because the motherboard has no battery slot and is just glued in with a 2-pin cable. It seems the board might be dead. It could be that the PSU was damaged by my family's habit of hard disconnecting it daily through a power switch hub, or maybe dust caused a short circuit inside. The PC wasn’t placed on a desk with good airflow; it sat in a thick wooden case with no ventilation. Internally, it was covered in dust and spiderwebs—anything I might have missed could be invisible. The H410M board is a pro model.
