So here is my situation,
My PC has had similar issues in the past where it mysteriously would not start, then randomly would start without any explanation. This is the first time I can confirm it happens after a sudden loss of power supply. Before it was me unplugging from the wall outlet, this time it was a power outage that happened over night.
I go through the same steps, testing PSU with a special connector that I got (PSU runs), then I try discharging the motherboard for 30 seconds (I don't hear the "popping noise" nor do any of the fans move at all) along with leaving it unplugged for 30 minutes (does not work) I'm at a loss now, then only thing that happens with power being supplied is one red light on my asus mobo. The PC will not turn on in any way, it does not boot at all, it's like it's completely dead with the exception of this one red light on the mobo that will disappear slowly if I disconnect the PSU.
Usually, the PC would eventually start if I left it alone for a little, but this time it's not doing anything. I'm assuming the PSU or mobo has gone bad, but I just wanted some input before I spent money.
Thanks!
