I recently acquired a laptop hard drive and was installing it while attempting to transfer data. The computer unexpectedly powered on during the installation process, resulting in an immediate shutdown and subsequent failure to operate. The keyboard functions only when the PCIe GPU connector is disconnected.

Attempts to resolve the issue include resetting the CMOS three times and a lack of motherboard speaker preventing POST detection.

Specifications:
AMD FX-4350
Sapphire Nitro RX-460 4GB
Gigabyte GA-970A-DSP3
Kingston Hyper X Fury 2 x 4GB
Shark Technologies 750 watt certified PSU
Western Digital 1TB HDD
Samsung 500GB HDD
Rosewill Challenger Case
AMD Wraith Max Silent CPU Cooler
Inuive 120mm PC fan
Rosewill 120mm PC fan
