If you have a modular power supply, check the connections on that too. Happened to me after cleaning once.

Clean the power supply… along with everything else
God bless you. You’ve saved me from a big hassle. My CPU plug was unplugged for some reason and it grabbed my attention after watching your video. Very very helpful. Thank you so so so much!!!!!❤
Also accumulated dust and moisture will be conductive and will short many stuff

Thank you dear Sir, I cleaned the dusty gaming PC and can't boot it up using the power button. This saved us the cost for repair.. alot Thanks abunch! God bless ya 🙏❤️
It all makes sense, when I was building my Pc, i directly connected it to the wall socket. When I was finally done, I went to fix it on a side of the room with an extension lead. Thanks! But I wonder what the solution could be since I can’t move my setup next to a wall socket.

It was that!
Moment of terror, built new computer, would not start. Turned on the power switch on the PSU and...and started up...next day watched a video that the guy did the same.
Just to add something that I have seen more than once. Make sure there are no shorts most common in USB ports that are broken.

My extension was working Properly ,but not for pc,so i plugged it in Outlet and its working ,thanks
Appreciate the help. I went for a jog then came back to a PC that wouldn’t turn on. Tried a lot of stuff, none successful. Ordered a new PSU. Hopefully that works or else my mobo is fried or something EDIT: Replaced my PSU and everything worked fine. I guess it must've died on me while I was away

My issue was the power button I referred back to the manual for my mother board found where pins are for power button and used a screwdriver to hot start it. Works just fine for a new button on the way. Now I’m referring to the power button on top not the power supply button.
Nice tips keep it up!

Being a tech myself (not specifically a hardware tech), I'm almost certain that I'd be able to figure out the problem suggested. However, I don't believe I've ever seen and/or heard such a VERY detailed set of instructions/recommendations about this specific problem. Thank you VERY much for making this quick clip!

Good tips, my current issue is I have to kill power to my pc for 5ish minutes before it will turn on, it started yesterday, not 100% sure why, PSU or MOBO I'd guess. 🤷♂️
Thank u somuch😊
do you need to switch the power supply off as well after shutting doen your pc?
Useful tips, i think the long lived ColorsIT power supply inside my old AMD Sempron Box has finally kicked the bucket.....sad to see but hopefully it hasn't taken the rest of the PC out with it.
Thank you
Ty so much it worked
my mobo was just fried beyond recognition
I would be really grateful if anyone could help me with my problem. Today, I replaced my chap power supply with a new Corsair RM850x (shift series). When I tried to turn it on, it powered for a second (the fans started spinning, and the light turned on), but right after that, it stopped and turned off. I checked if all of the cables were plugged in correctly, and I think they are. I haven't changed anything else. Does anyone have any ideas on what could be the problem?
Couple years ago i had an issiue with my pc not turning on. Sometimes it started after one press sometimes 20th. After couple of days trying found out that the psu cable to the wall was faulty. Didnt expect that at all.

I have a question, everytime we went to see a computer parts specialist to check on our cpu, the cpu turned on but when we came back from home the cpu wont turn on we tried it in different power sources but it wont turn on at our house but in other place the cpu turned on
My pc is 14 years old and now is completely rebuilt. However it has not seen the amount of dust this one has. Crazy.
I have this issue, computer will boot then suddenly shuts off. Checked everything you have mentioned, this goes everytime, power button not working sometimes then I bypass it in the motherboard. But sometimes it is not turning on from there as well, is this a case of PSU + MOBO is already done? PC not even 1 year old But most of the time it does that, after waiting for about 15 minutes then PC will run and I can use it for more than 5 hours with no issues
I had this after doing various checking of thing and checking cables plugged in etc. I Reset cmos bios with the jumper and it powered up perfectly if it happens again I might have to change cmos battery.
holy shit that is the dirtiest PC on the planet dawg
My motherboard has 2 cpu cables do I plug them both in or just one?
I shorted my psu and it turned on along with my cpu and gpu plus my led lights n fans. But when i try to short my power switch pins , nothing happens. Can my motherboard be the culprit if my psu and everything else is working when shorted ?
when i boot my pc they light up in sequence. it starts with the white led(4 seconds), goes to yellow(4seconds), but then once it turns red only lights up for 1-2 seconds then goes back to white and the sequence loops. They don’t blink rapidly they light up once each. I have power, gpu,AIO and fans all turn on. I reseated my plugs, ram, gpu, flashed bios, still nothing. help!!! do i need to clear the cmos and redo bios flash? brand new build trying to get it to post
And also check for dirt buildup and vacuum it
Thanks
I build a new pc and it doesn't turn on,i bought tray cpu and there wasn't any problem,when i plug everything to motherboard and i turned it on,it doesn't turn on and i noticed a brown dot under the cpu it was barely noticeable and i font know what to do?
Help I moved pc to clean table than back it and turn on when windows Powdered up it just turned off and won't turn and light of power supply isn't showing...
Can a bad gpu cause a boot loop or windows not to start? My pc comes on but won't load windows even from a thumb drive. Bios is all I can get to. Crashed while playing a game and this is the outcome 😢
also try resetting the cmos
I did all of it, removed 24 pin and connected 12v and ground, and the psu turned on. Onnected everything back to mobo, but i have literally zero energy, the fans dont even try to move 1 inch. Tried another psu, it does turn on, but on mobo the samething as the other. That should be a bad mobo, right?
For me it was the power extension
My CPU power was just turning on and off.I opened the side panel and tightened the cables then gave a whiff so that the dust gets away.and it started working again❤
Thank U
I got this weird problem on my PC where sometimes it just won't turn on after a shutdown. And I always have to open up the PC and readjust the cables and other items inside despite always securing them. Does the dirt on PC always play a part in that due to it being a bit dusty inside or coz it's old since I have it since 2016
Will it still work if u do use an extension cord? 😅

Why when I connect my 24pin connector to my motherboard it's not working but the power cable works
If feel the electric static can anybody tell me what wrong with that?
So my computer won't turn on, my power supply is working( if I plug a paper clip in it the fan will go). But when I try to use the screwdriver doesn't turn it on. Is it my motherboard?
My pc wont turn on after a recent windows update. Motherboard and gpu lights up as normal but pressing the power button wont work
So the bypass works, led lights around my power switch turn on, but the switch just doesn’t work.
I LOVE YOU SO MUCH!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤
My wall socket won’t work but I went to the store it turned on I’m not sure what to get
Bruhh i thought my pc wasn't working because i thought the fan will activate after you enable the psu
