[SOLVED] System not booting (CPU Issue)

[ryanscottnewton]

Hi All,

Working on a friend's PC at the moment running a Ryzen 2600.

Plug into power, motherboard lights come on. Press power button, nothing happens, no beep, no sound, no fans, nothing.

Take fan & CPU out, place back in, PC boots fine, after a day and some moving of the PC around the system does not boot at all until I repeat steps.

Any help would be really appreciated, super confused on what's happening here!

Sounds like bent/broken CPU/CPU socket pins. Either that, or some loose cable connection somewhere.

Aged/busted capacitors would be another option, but without full system specs, impossible to tell accurately.
