I have a GIGABYTE AORUS GA-Z270X-Gaming K5 motherboard. I left my PC idle and went out to get coffee with a friend. Everything was fine when I left it. When I returned, the RGB fans were lit up and spinning but the motherboard lights were off. I restarted the computer and the motherboard lights flickered once and the fans started spinning and the CPU cooler lit up. The lights on the motherboard all turned off besides one small red indicator light on the bottom corner. I think it means something is up with the CPU? I made sure all the cables were secure and tried again. Same result. I even removed the CPU and cleaned the top and reapplied thermal paste and tried restarting again. Same result. I'm scared that my motherboard is fried since I have all the USB outlets in use and even have a USB hub. Any insight would be greatly appreciated. I have some photos of the motherboard and the red indicator light.
