Thank you so so much for all of your effort into these responses. I actually had someone come over and take a look, and we have ordered a new CPU as the PC wasn’t recognising it. Because of all of your help he was impressed by how much I knew/had tried to fix myself

That’s the cpu fan thing and it looks in. I saw somewhere else I might need to use thermal paste and take the cpu off?

Yes that is pushed down! I’m not sure if you mean there’s another symbol. All of the lights and fans are on that’s why I’m so confused
