I cleaned my PC with a vacuum cleaner today, and since then, I've had trouble with it. The only thing except vacuuming I did was taking the RAM sticks out, and putting them back in after cleaning.
My problems consist of this: When I turn the computer on, it (all the fans and lights in the case, anyway) turn on, and turn off again after a few seconds. (Oddly, this interval is shorter - around a second - if the RAM is taken out before starting the computer). After turning off, it turns on again and everything seems to be normal. But I get no sound out of my speakers, I get no picture on my monitor, and my keyboard doesn't seem to get any power (no lights).
I don't know if it's relevant, but my motherboard has a red light shining while the computer is on. I don't know if that was the case before my troubles started.
