Replaced the mobo and everything works

Ok thank you

Ok well I’m going to start by returning and replacing the mobo probably with the same on. If that still doesn’t work then I will test the ram on a friends computer, after that if it wasn’t the ram or mobo I can assume it is iether the psu or cpu probably but a psu tester if it’s not the psu then...

Funny that you say trying to clamp the cooler to an unmounted motherboard, I did install the cpu cooler while the motherboard was not mounted into the case. Could that have broken the mobo.

It is a brand new psu, wouldn’t it be more likely for it to be a problem with the motherboard. Than a psu that does pass the paper clip test that is brand new. The mobo is a msi b450 pro The psu is a bronze certified 550 volt Both new purchased on amazon There is zero fan spin on the case or...

That is rough because I really can’t comprehend a lot of that I’m hoping that is is just a faulty motherboard, could it be that I don’t have a graphics card. My cpu has onboard graphics but... also the problem is that the pc does literally nothing, no fans spin the psu fan does not spin the only...

Do you think I should return the mobo?

I know for a fact that it is not getting power because the power supply fan does not turn and and when I shorted it it did, also the standby light on the mobo does light up.

Ok that is good to know, my motherboard is a msi b450 pro do you know if that should at least turn fans on. I just want to make sure before I return it that is is the mobo, I have tried to reaseat the ram and that didn’t work so

I have shorted the psu with the paper clip trick and the psu did turn on, I also tried to short the power button 2 pins with a screwdriver witch did not work, that leads me to believe it is the mobo cpu or ram or the fact that I don’t have a graphics card, I think the most obvious thing would be...

I also have tried assembling everything out of case, I also do know that my 2 pin power switch is connected to the correct spot

When I press my power button nothing at all happens, psu does not start/the psu fan does not start. I don’t know if it could be a becuase I don’t have a graphics card but my cpu has integrated graphics, I don’t have any way to test the ram or cpu but without those when the power button is...
