I haven't even changed any bios settings or any hardware for several days now. Last night, I shut my computer down, and this morning, I hit the power button- nothing.
My motherboard is less than 2 months old, and has been working wonderfully since then, with just minor complaints about ram compatibility, and I'm not a huge fan of the BIOS layout.
As far as I know, there wasn't a power outage overnight, and my computer is plugged in via a UPS, so voltage fluctuations shouldn't cause any problems unless they were REALLY bad.
Took the side panel off, and the power light on the motherboard isn't even on. Unplug everything, press power button, wait several hours, still doesn't work upon re-connection.
Yes, the PSU switch is on.
I've tested the PSU using the "short the green wire to black" method, and it turns on, I can hear my disk drive / hard drives spin up.
Tested PSU with psu tester, all rails seem fine.
I've tried Resetting the BIOS, even though that shouldn't make a difference, since the power light isn't even lit.
I've tried switching the the backup BIOS, just in case, still no difference.
I tried it with the Video card disconnected
Tried with the NVMe drive disconnected
Tried again with EVERYTHING disconnected from the motherboard but the 24-pin, the 8-pin, and CPU fan.
I don't have any ideas what to do now, except take the motherboard out, and try it bare on a table.
Is there any chance my Motherboard really has spontaneously died overnight?
