Hi, While cleaning my PC I tilted my can of compressed air slightly too far and it sprayed a liquid into the power supply.
Ever since this happened, the PC will not boot. However it will still power on. All of the fans start spinning and the HDD LED turns on and starts flickering as usual, but there is no signal from the video card, or onboard video, and all of my peripherals appear non responsive (The LEDS on my mouse and keyboard never turn on).
The computer will also turn off and on repeatedly whenever I attempt to plug in a new device while it's powered on.
Unfortunately I can't tell whether or not it's booting into Windows because I have no video output.
I'm really just wondering if I could get some educated guesses as to which components I'll need to replace, I'm sure I'll need a new power supply but I can't figure out If I need to replace the motherboard and video card too. Any thoughts?
Solved: It ended up being the power supply, everything else worked once it was replaced.
