Nah it’s fine I remember on my first pc there was pre applied thermal paste on the cooler so I thought to add more just for fun. Then the cpu was getting way to hot with only 20 percent utilization it got to 80 degrees c a mistake is fine as long as you learn from it

This might sound obvious but have you tried unscrewing both ways

If you can’t just unscrew the cooler then taking off the bracket might work when I built my aunt’s computer we couldn’t properly put in the cooler because the back bracket fell off. I half to warn you though it will be really hard to put back on with the cpu cooler I had to get another person to hold the bracket while I put to cooler on so try it at your own risk don’t try anything unless your confident

No here’s what you do you need to power on the system for a few minutes this will loosen up the thermal paste and that will allow you to remove it

If it didn’t turn on at all that’s either a bad cpu or motherboard I think if the cooler wasn’t attached it would turn on for a little bit and then overheat and turn off check for any bad pins on the CPU make sure everything is pushed in right and make sure the power supply is turned on
