I accidentally kicked my pc as it’s under my desk, not like a full on kick but I sort of kneed it, not hard enough to hurt someone but now my pc won’t startup properly It once did something a bit like the the day I got it, and I had to reinstall windows, but surely it can’t be the same thing. First, I could hear the fans churning up and then it would beep I think 3 times. I turned the power off and tried again. Same thing. I turned the power off again and now I can hear the fans start up but nothing else happens, no beep, the light on the gpu dosent turn on and no display comes up. I’m really puzzled and I don’t really know what to do. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. **EDIT** It’s started up, everything seems fine. I am booting windows now to see what happens. Will update

That’s great, hope everything stays stable for you. Just to let you know if there are any further issues… we can only provide hardware support for PC Specialist builds. If your PC wasn’t built by them you’ll have to look elsewhere for assistance, Tom’s Hardware is always a good shout.

If your rig is a PCS system you can just post your spec and the hive mind will do what it can to help 👍

Hi…so I may have bumped it again. Same thing except after doing what I did last time (pressing random components in case they got nudged) it’s still not starting properly. It is a pcs build, my specs are as follows:
RTX 3060
Ryzen 5 5600x
32gb 2666mhz ram
B550 Gigabyte motherboard
Its fan cooled
I have a 2TB HDD and a 512gb M.2 Nvme SSD
I’ll be happy to tell you anything else. I am going to continue turning it off an on again. Wish me luck

Update: It’s still not working, after a lot of on and off and pushing random parts a bit. I’ve got no clue what’s wrong but I’ll keep trying 😭.

UPDATE: I FIXED THE DAMN THING. Had to reseat my ram. Only reason I managed to fix it was because it gave me 3 beeps ONCE last night the first time it did this l. Google said it meant my rams a little funny so I took it out and put it back in and hey presto it’s turned on and my user is loading. It remembered my password so data can’t be corrupted.. I’ll just have to wait until I get on to the desktop. Now I am going to have to shut it down again and go into bios to set up this new ram but all seems good
