Hello everyone,

I run a z370-e mobo. Today my nephew plugged a hanging six cable that was plugged into the computer already via a usb into a aux hole. The pc then shut off and never turned on again.
So far I have basically rebuilt the computer from ground up and it’s still not working.
When I boot off the mobo has an Rgb that turns on and stays on that’s the only sign of life. Other than the orange light that comes on then goes away.
it may be a psu issues. The thing about that is when I tested the psu via the pin connector with a clip it turns on. Also it turns all the fans on as well when I test it while it’s on.
