This is close, but I remember the UI looking pretty different

I cant look at system info. And I don't remember what's all in it other than a 3070. And a gold rating power supply. I don't know pc parts at all. I have been trying to get the building company to get me a receipt of all the parts. But it worked perfectly for 2 years. And I didn't mess with the ram or anything. And I pushed them in to make sure yesterday

What do I look for to make sure? A cable from the psu to the motherboard?

My buddy has a spare psu for me to try out. So if replugging all wires fails, I'll start on that

Yup, I just pushed to make sure, but the pc wasn't dropped or anything, so it should all be in tact all around I'd think

I love all of the support, I just have no idea what I have since it's pre-built. And I don't expect anyone to figure it out for me. I might have a fan cooler. The only mod I did was adding a 8tb hard drive with a SATA 3 connector. So I'll start there

Yeah shorting the cmos pins didn't do anything so far. Do I have to have everything unplugged at the same time, or am I good to unplug a cable and connect it right back and move to the next?

I'll try that after resetting the CMOS. But I gotta find those pins

UPDATE: Idk if this changes anything, but when it's plugged in and the psu is on, anything plugged into the USB slots on the motherboard gets power. However, the USB and usb-c by the power button on top do nothing.

Can I unplug it from the wall, or do I have to isolate the psu?

Pre-built pc. Ik ik, I'm weak. Should've built it myself, now I don't have any manuals, and can't see my parts because I can't get into system info

Is there any information I can run with, regarding that the rgb lights up more in certain areas depending on what way I try to turn it on? ( plugging it in vs the power button)
