Hey everyone, I shut down my PC last night like always, and it was working perfectly fine. However, when I tried to power it on this morning, it showed no signs of life at all. I even tried plugging it into a different wall socket and ensured the power cable was properly connected, but still nothing happens when I hit the power button. What steps should I take to troubleshoot this issue?

What CPU and motherboard are you using? That info might help in diagnosing the issue. Just a thought!
First thing, check the switch on the back of the power supply. Also, look for any lights on the motherboard. If everything seems fine but it still won’t power on, the next best step is to try a different power supply.
I agree with the previous comment. My power supply failed out of nowhere too. Try power cycling the tower and flipping the switch on the back a couple of times—sometimes it might turn on, but it’s often a sign that it needs replacement. Just a heads-up, it can be frustrating to get it started. Good luck!
It’s so annoying, right? Mine just died suddenly too, and I had replaced it only a year ago!
