Oh, I had this problem before. You may have shorted out your motherboard or got some thin caught in the cpu fan, so you might need to re order a motherboard. /s
Flips power switch on power supply
You’re a genius!

I had this happen after I cleaned a bit of smeared thermal paste off my motherboard with an excess of isopropyl alcohol and a toothbrush. But then it was fine the next day after it had more time to dry.

Did you clean it with a pressure washer? I don’t see how people are breaking their PCs by blowing compressed air into them.

I did this to a work PC once. It was so full of dust that I brought it to the workshop on site and blew out all the dust with an air compressor, but I guess the compressor was too strong and took out a component on the motherboard because I couldn’t get it to boot afterwards

Last time I almost did it, I bought an air blowing device for the dust, then I flip the machine over and had a good look through the glass with a flashlight. Finally decided not to do anything with it. 🙈

You removed the most vital component – dust. Of course it won’t start anymore.

When you post the same meme but with different picture and now you get free karma
Is this a pretty common thing?
