The new PC fails to start.
The new PC fails to start.
Reviewed all the instructions from the guide. The device remains inactive—no sounds, no lights, no response. Power supply appears functional but output isn’t reaching the system. Checked connections and power cables multiple times. RAM was tested on different boards, but the motherboard model remains consistent. Consulted the manual for the power button placement. Attempted bypassing the power button by shorting its pins. If this resolves startup, the issue lies with the power button itself. Verified power from the outlet using another device. No further input received. Consider replacing the power button or checking for hidden faults.
I tested three different power sources, booted it using my 750-watt Evga Supernova and got the same outcome.
Verify the power button on the back of the PSU. It’s easy to miss. If there’s no response and the front panel connector isn’t properly connected, the issue might stem from a faulty PSU or motherboard.
I'm really confused about this. It seems I messed up with the shorting process, or maybe another factor was involved. After cleaning everything out, I managed to short the board and get it back on. The camera was reinstalled, but the power button on the case isn't working.
