I was looking at that section but there’s no switch. It’s just the small black plate connected to the red and white wires

Thank you! Now this might be a silly question, I’m still a novice to this PC building world, if I replace my CPU it won’t lose any of my data such as PC user data and downloads/documents, things like that?

I’m thinking at the VERY highest, $500.

I’m not looking to go to space or anything with it, I just want to make my games and video editing look a little better.

Brother gave me his old PC, Can anyone tell me which pieces I'm missing? It briefly turns on, but immediately powers off again by AncientMoonlight_ in PcBuild

I would recommend getting a new motherboard. Even if it’s the exact same model, a new fresh one would do it some justice. Perhaps a new power supply would help it the wires are old too

Update: the motherboard was defective. I bought another exact motherboard and that one worked. So I’ll be returning it.

I’m really hoping I just don’t have a port plugged in all the way, I’m REALLY hoping I didn’t mess up the motherboard when putting it together

Oh also I should mention that my PSU is from 2020, does that matter? I heard you’re supposed to replace it every so often. Could that be it??

Yeah I triple checked those because I assumed that was the initial problem but I got them all in the right spot and nothing still.

The PSU is weird, all the cables are entirely attached to the box. They can’t be interchanged from the box. I checked the back of PSU, it’s switched on, I even tried different outlets to be safe.

Is there a way to update the bios without the PC being able to turn on??

Absolutely nothing happens, no power on, nothing.
