… it looks like ended up breaking my PC on the move somehow… I even went ahead and removed the GPU to prevent it from breaking but it looks like that’s actually what ended up being broken 🙃 (I have 4 debug LEDs. When I turn it on it goes from CPU to DRAM to VGA and gets stuck there). I’ll have to see if I can get it to work somehow after I get home later, but I’m afraid I was unlucky enough to actually have killed my GPU with static electricity. And of course it had to be the most expensive part…

    Try reseating everything. Including ram and power cables. Small chance, but worth a try

      A CMOS reset fixed it, of all things. I don’t understand. Doesn’t the CMOS only hold configs for the RAM and CPU, and which boot device to use etc.?
