Hello, I have recently decided to dissasemble my PC to clean all the dust that was inside. After assembling everything back, I decided to check if everything is okay and it turned out that my computer turns on for approx 2 seconds, then shuts down and does the same thing repeatedly. I have tried several things:
1. Press the power button for 1 minute with removed battery and charger
2. Insert RAM to other slot
3. Try to boot up only with a screen connected (no hard, no RAMS, etc.)
4. Checked all the connections, wires, etc.
The only thing which changed something was removing RAM’s, because computer turned on for around 15-20 seconds (instead of 2) and then turned off repeatedly. The screen doesn’t show any signs of working as well, even the backlight doesnt work. What else can I try to do? Is it the motherboard fault?

Hi,
What exactly was disassembled? Have you used the antistatic mat or wrist strap? We need more information.
