So I was playing a game on my PC, and accidentally pulled it with my leg and it kind of tilted a bit to the right side before falling back down on its own to the 4 stands. It wasnt a major pull nor was the impact big but the pc froze. So I turned off power to the psu on its button, and turned it back on and booted again, but I got no image on my monitor.
This has happened before and I fixed it by switching the display cables used, so I unplugged the DP cable and tried again but replugging after boot to no result. Then I tried plugging an hdmi as well and swapping input after but to the same result. I then booted with only hdmi connected and then I somehow also got no signal on my keyboard or mouse. Not just that but it would boot, spin fans intensely for a while and turn off before rebooting on its own and repeating.
I've;
unplugged hdmi
plugged dp
unplugged both
reset the gpu
reset ram
unplugged and plugged both motherboard and cpu power connectors
held the power button down after unplugging power for a bit
and after all this, the same boot loop, even when only connecting keyboard and hdmi or DP
and I still don't get signal on my keyboard.
I also looked at the components to see if there was any crack (which would be weird given I barely pulled the case) or cable that might have fallen on something that could be shorting, but I genuinely can't find anything weird.
I can't understand how I went from no picture to no boot simply for swapping/adding a display cable. Help and tips appreciated.
Cpu: pentium g4600
Mobo: gigabyte b250m-d3h
Gpu: gigabyte gtx 1050
Ram: 4x2gb 2400mhz
Psu: corsair cx650m (from 2016 I think)
