3 Reasons Why Your PC Won't Turn On. No Fan Spin, Lights, or Anything!
Hey everyone, in this video, I go over 3 reasons why your new or newly upgraded PC won't turn on without even any signs of life. Recently I took advantage of Christmas deals to get new components for my PC. I hadn't upgraded the main parts like the mobo, CPU, and RAM for nearly 5 years so it was time when I started noticing that my FPS wasn't keeping up like it used to. I've taken apart and built almost half a dozen computers without any real hiccup that left me stumped to the point where I had to put it off into another day, I looked online for no real answers. Long story short, it looks like it was a component wire failure. When I say that, I mean the 6-prong cord that goes into the CPU power plug, as well as the mobo plug and GPU plug. It could've also been the PSU, but it wasn't obvious that it was. This was the video I wish I found when I was scouring the web trying to find a real solution, so I hope it helps you like it would've helped me! Let me know your thoughts in the comments

Hopefully this helps someone figure out why their PC won't turn on!
it could also be the motherboard that's causing the issue, although usually a fan would spin for a split second while trying to power on (something is shorting on the motherboard). also a good way to eliminate your case power button as the issue is to jump the 2 pins where the front panel power switch wiring would go, it happened to me once so it doesn't hurt to try. best of luck to everyone troubleshooting their rigs :)
Happened to me this week. Not entirely sure why. I disconnected every non essential cable (like front usb port, leds, speaker), and also disconnected and then reconnected the power switch cable to the motherboard; and after that it worked. Probably it was the power switch cable... but I think I just put it back to the same pins it was at the first time. And I later connected all the extra cables, and still working.
One time my friends pc would not power on and it was the cmos battery
Yess that was another good basic one I forgot to include. Thanks for saying, I personally haven’t had that one happen before but it definitely belonged on this list
