I used to be able to clear the cmos of my pc and it would start up but now nothing works. When i click the power button it doesnt turn on and when i try to start the pc manually by trying to jump the power button pins nothing happens. I have an asrock z170 pro4s motherboard. Please help, Im not so tech savy and would like to fix this

That sounds like either a motherboard issue or a PSU issue, we should wait for others to comment on this post to see what they think.

In my opinion I think that you should replace your power supply and see if that solves the problem.
