The issue appears to involve the PC failing to start after pressing the power button, with the GPU lights flashing continuously. This could indicate a power supply problem, motherboard fault, RAM failure, or GPU malfunction. Check each component systematically. IMG_3431.MOV

We notice fans are spinning, indicating the system isn’t fully off. Consider reinserting the GPU and resetting the CMOS—great starting points if you haven’t already. Let’s focus on affordable fixes before moving to pricier options! Good luck!

Did you verify the CMOS? Removing and putting back the components won’t reset it. You should have a jumper on the motherboard or a small battery on the board—take it out and hold the power button for roughly ten seconds. Ensure the PSU switch is in the OFF position, meaning the O side is pressed down during this step. EDIT: also double-check that you’re tagging people in this chat or else we won’t see your reply!

What model of motherboard are you using? You should see an error sign in the upper right corner, either a beep or light signal. It might be helpful to remove the PC case, but as discussed earlier, try to take out the CMOS battery and use only one RAM stick during the check. After disassembling, I recommend reassembling it again, but keep the motherboard on top of its box so you can eliminate any ground or short circuit problems.

I'm using an ASUS A320M-K motherboard. I'll definitely give it a shot too. Thanks!
