Here is my parts list: Intel Core i7-6700K, Asus GeForce GTX 960, NZXT Phantom 410 (White) - System Build - PCPartPicker United Kingdom
Hi, first-time builder here. I recently put together the system above and everything went smoothly (got POST, went into the BIOS - didn't tweak anything-, booted windows 10 from a flash drive...) until I installed windows 10. Once I was done setting up windows (post-install prompted preferences choices and security), I simply changed the screen resolution and turned off the system (didn't connect to the internet or did anything else). I had done all this with the case lids removed so I put them back on and powered the system again. This time all the components in the case seemed to power up (all fans and HDD spinning, pump working, all LEDs lit up...) but there was no POST, or just to be completely clear: there were no beeps, no video output at all, and the mouse and keyboard were not lit up.
I looked at the motherboard and no LEDs were lit up (other than the aesthetic ones in the chipset) and the Q-code displayed was "4F". I then pressed the power button for 4 seconds and it turned off the system. I tried to turn the system back on several times and all the attempts yielded the same result. I also tried to leave the system on for a couple of hours just to make sure it wasn't a relatively long loading process or similar (as I said, I have very little experience for these matters at this point) with no changes in the state of the system.
Any indications on what to do next will be highly appreciated. Thank you so much!
