Hi guys,
I've had my PC for a while now (~jan 2009) and have never had any issues up until today. I opened up my case to remove my PSU (I need it to build an eGPU - another story...). Anyway, I realised how dusty everything has gotten since the last time i cleaned things. I disconnected the external plug from the PSU and dusted everything with compressed air.
I plugged everything back in and the LED on my mobo lights up as usual, however neither the mobo power-on button (nor by extension the case one) seem to do anything. The fan doesnt spin up, no beeps... nothing.
The PC was working fine before I did this so it must be the act of dusting... What do I do? Have I shorted something? Have I ****** something up?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
