Question Help! No boot, No power for keyboard and mouse.

[mrhumbler]

Excuse me for my ignorance,

I'm not sure as to how it happened but I think it had to do with the electricity at my hometown since it sometimes blacks out with no announcements. So I always shutdown my PC after going to bed. Morning came and I was planning on doing my thesis papers so I opened the System Unit. And nothing boots, keyboard and mouse doesn't have light. I tried reseating the RAM and tried to put it to the other ram slots. I also tried to turn it on without the ram but I heard no beeps.


My Specs:

ASUS H97M-E Motherboard (Purchased last May 2015)
Intel i5-4460 3.20 Ghz (Purchased last May 2015)
GIGABYTE GTX 1660 (Purchased last Nov 2019)
KINGSTON 480gb SSD (Purchased last July 2021)
1x8GB RAM Kingstone HyperX Fury DDR3 1600hmz (Purchased last May 2015)
DEEPCOOL DE600 V2 (Purchased last July 2021)
24' 60HZ Monitor(Purchased last May 2015)

Hello update! I changed the CMOS battery, It didn't work. I removed the old one then waited 5mins before putting the new one. I'm lost on what to do so my only option now is to bring it to a repair shop. But, Thank you for replying.

Best guess now would be the rather junky PSU chosen failing.

Thanks for the reply. I do hope its just a PSU problem.

Is the BIOS battery´s plus sign visible, when you look at it?

can you jump start the PSU? paper clip test

Yes the cmos battery is in the correct position with the + sign visible. For the jump starting the PSU, I don't think thats necessary since the Mobo has a led indicator that shows the board has power and it powers up the fans from the gpu, cpu and chasis fan. One thing I forgot to mention before was that sometimes my pc would shut off randomly even if I only opened chrome with few tabs and I find that whenever I play certain games like cs2 that require some gpu power like over 85%. The pc would shutdown and I had to turn it on again.

ok
try bare minimum
psu, cpu with fan, motherboard, psu, video cable connected to motherboard and monitor, one ram in slot a2

Update: I went to my local Computer Store. They found the cause of the booting issue, it was STATIC.

The guy at the store just cleaned the RAM and GPU with an eraser then reseated it. It then booted up to the ASUS BIOS.

He literally did the repair in 30 seconds.

I'm curious as to how STATIC can cause this? Can someone enlighten me with this so I can avoid this issue in the future.

Edit: Sorry for the long update. I had a lot in my hand lately and I wasn't able to reply.
