Hey everyone! The title basically describes what happened. I switched from an Intel stock cooler to an Alseye H120D and everything worked fine. I even cleaned up my PC at some point. But after that, the issue appeared when I booted up—fans were running but no display showed up. At first I thought it was a GPU problem, but fixing it by unplugging the new hard drive didn’t help. After that, I faced a stuck BIOS screen with F2 and D for BIOS settings. I’ve tried almost everything online: removing CMOS, unplugging everything, reapplying RAM, even swapping back to the stock cooler. Still nothing. The connected devices are mostly SSD for boot and RAM (Intel i5-4460, RX 570 4GB, 500GB SSD, Transcendent 500GB, Samsung 4GB + Vgen 4GB DDR3, HDD: Seagate Momentus Thin 500GB, Toshiba 1TB). The problematic HDD is the one with the Fujitsu 250GB PSU.

Was dieses Problem bereits vor dem Einbau des Kühlers aufgetreten oder ist es erst nach dem Einbau passiert?

Sorry for the delayed response. This happens only when I install it. Switching back to my old stock intel cooler resolved the issue, so it’s likely my PSU (500W) isn’t handling everything.

The PSU seems a bit underwhelming, so I suggest upgrading. You don’t need to focus on just the wattage—it’ll still be sufficient—but opt for a more dependable brand such as a CX 550 or similar.

I've launched a fresh discussion for a new PSU suggestion. The Digital Alliance is a regional electronic producer based in my nation.

I've never encountered them before. They might be great, but in PSUs I usually stick to trusted brands.

Hey, have you resolved your issue yet? I’m facing the same problem, but my PC is brand new. Spoiler: it’s different.
