I let Windows do its job of removing everything because I'd been advised it would take a few hours, but when I got up today, the PC wouldn't start. The issue currently is that Windows will not start. So I removed all files and personal information from it then I restarted my computer while holding down the 'shift' key, then performed as instructed, and removed all of my data. My computer was completely reset yesterday because I'm ready to sell my PC. Did I blow up my system? How can I tell if a component of my computer is faulty? I attempted to remove my power supply and replace it with a nice, functional one. There would be no response, no fans whirling, nothing. When I reconnected everything, the computer would not boot.
I made sure to hold the air upright to avoid any condensation on the pieces. So I was cleaning my PC this morning with a dry paintbrush, compressed air, and isopropyl alcohol.
Scenario: Cleaned my PC now it won’t turn on
