I ran into some trouble with the CPU power cord connected to my PSU, but I've sorted that out. Now, however, my PC isn't turning on at all. Everything else on the motherboard seems fine. Any ideas on what could be going wrong? Here's a link to a picture for reference: https://imgur.com/a/hC3apoy

First, make sure the PSU's power switch is actually turned on. It sounds simple, but it’s an easy thing to overlook. Next, check if the outlet you're using has power. Then, confirm that your front panel power switch is properly connected to the right pins on the motherboard. If you have a modular PSU, double-check all power connections to the motherboard on both ends.
If you're not using a modular PSU, then it shouldn't be an issue with loose cables. Just to clarify, did you fix the CPU power cord orientation? If so, maybe try unplugging and reconnecting the 24-pin connector as well. Sometimes reseating everything can help.
