Question How can I tell if my PC is now a Brick?

While using USB Safety Remove under W10 Pro 64, I selected Component Device to be removed.
Immediately the System froze and would not respond to any Keyboard or Mouse input.
I waited about 15 minutes, and it was still frozen.
I pulled out the power cord and waited another 15 minutes and plugged it back in.

The light on the front flashed and then the Fans came on at HIGH speed.

I tried this several times with no change nor any Post Alerts from my HP 8300 USDT.

Do I now have a Brick or are there any suggestions at trying to revive it?

I'm a Novice so any explanation should be at a Kindergarten level.
