so i decided to build my own pc about a year ago but never had a problem with it but today i was unplugging a wire while the pc was off and when i turn it back on the pc doesn’t do anything only lights up. the wire i inpligged was for the fans so didn’t think it was much of an issue but it must of been haha, can anyone help or have any suggestions please?
 
Solution
First step would be to get back in and double check that everything is still plugged in. Check your front header and particularly power switch to be sure you didn't accidentally pull it loose. Check all your PSU connectors, reseat the RAM and GPU and so forth.
