So I turned off my computer one night, no issues. Then when I went to turn it on the next morning, it did absolutely nothing. When I opened it up, I saw that the motherboard lights were still on, but the display had no error codes at all, just nothing. No matter how many times I hit the start button on the motherboard, nothing would happen.
Then I unplugged and replugged it from the wall and hit start again. The fans started spinning, like the comp was attempting to start, and then immediately stopped. After several cycles, I determined that when unplugged and replugged, the computer would always begin to start for milliseconds and then stop, and wouldn't even attempt to start again unless I unplugged and replugged it.
I tried taking it completely out and only having the CPU, CPU fan, and PSU attached to the mother board and still, the same thing. I replaced the PSU, same thing. I took out the motherboard battery for five minutes, no change.
I am having trouble discerning whether this is a CPU error or a Motherboard error, any suggestions?
My build is this:
Motherboard: ASUS Maximus Hero VI
CPU: Intel i7 4770k
PSU: Was Corsair TX750, now is Corsair RM750
Graphics: Geforce 760
RAM: Corsair Vengeance DDR3
