[SOLVED] I accidentally bumped my PSU’s power cable while the PC was still on. Did I damage something?

As the title suggests, I bumped the cable while the PC was being used, and the PC immediately turned on and off, but no display. So I tried to turn it off, but nothing happened when I pressed the power button or held it. So I just decided to turn the power button off, and for some reason even after I did that, the fans and my led lights were on for a solid 5 seconds and then they turned off.

it works normally now after restarting it, but have I damaged something? As now every time I turn it on, the fans start spinning, and then stop spinning and start spinning again then boot.

Make sure the power plug at back of PC case is pushed all the way in whilst holding front of PC with your other hand (this plug may have become partially dislodged when you bumped it).

Unlikely any damage has been done.
Yeah, I just plugged it in as firm as I can, ran some benchmarks and games. Nothing had changed, everything’s fine.
