Last week I had taken apart my computer to clean it out, redo cable management, and reapply thermal paste. Once I'd put it back together, I encountered the problem where the computer would turn on, fans and all, then after a few seconds and no POST, would shut off. This would continue indefinitely until I turned off the power supply.
First I tried reseating the cables, double checking for any loose screws that may be causing a short. Once I validated that and ran into the problem again, I reset the CMOS. Once again, I encountered the same problem. I took apart the whole thing again, then just stripped it to the bare components; PSU, motherboard, CPU, and CPU cooler. I ran into the same problem, even when changing wires.
By this point, I have tried everything I could think of, and have even replaced the Thermal Paste, CPU, motherboard, and PSU. The only thing that I haven't replaced is the cooler, which I don't see how it would've broken down during cleanup. Any help is appreciated.
