I'm new to the pc community and just built one a few weeks ago with no hiccups. I decide to upgrade my stock amd cooler to an AIO liquid cooler. I installed the cooler then turn on my pc. AIO turns on along with all my case fans but I get no picture with my hdmi plugged into my GPU and my M.2 is no longer blinking. In addition I can use my case's power button to turn my pc on but not off and both my keyboard and mouse which light up only do for a second before turing off again. Is it possible I shorted out my motherboard by accidentally getting alcohol on it while cleaning off thermal paste or is it something else entirely?

Welcome to the forums, newcomer!

When posting a thread of troubleshooting nature, it's customary to include your full system's specs. Please list the specs to your build like so:
CPU:
CPU cooler:
Motherboard:
Ram:
SSD/HDD:
GPU:
PSU:
Chassis:
OS:
Monitor:
include the age of the PSU apart from it's make and model.

Assuming your AIO's mounting is using screws, if so, you might want to reduce the stress on the AIO's mount by performing an anti-clockwise rotation for the screws holding down the cooler's block.

CPU Cooler: originally stock cooler that came with CPU upgraded to the ID-COOLING Frostflow 240

I originally believed the AIO was drawing too much wattage so uninstalled it and put the stock AMD cooler back on but thr same issues persisted.
