I am beyond frustrated with my PC right now, I had unplugged it completely so I could move it to a new location/new outlet. I unplugged it correctly and when I was ready to boot it up in its new location, I got a steady white light on the motherboard and absolutely no display/response. Everything appeared to boot up correctly as far as my RGB goes, except my ram sticks. I've done everything google has to offer except completely physically reinstalling the GPU. (I have made sure the monitor was on while booting up, i unplugged a ram stick, ive unplugged/replugged in the GPU,Ive put it back on the outlet it was originally on, Ive tried bootup with nothing but the hdmi plugged in) I'm at a loss and frusted as hell. What do I do?????? The motherboard is an Asus/TUF B550 PLUS WIFI II AMD AM4 3RD GEN and the graphics card is a MSI GTX 1660 super 192bit.

If your motherboard is displaying a steady white light but there is no display, this could indicate a few potential issues that are worth troubleshooting.

One common cause of this problem is a compatibility issue between the motherboard and the CPU. Ensure that the CPU is properly seated and compatible with the motherboard. Double-check that you have installed the CPU correctly, as improper installation can prevent the system from posting and displaying an image.

Another possibility is a problem with the RAM. Try removing and reseating the RAM modules, ensuring they are fully inserted and locked into place. You can also try using just a single RAM stick to see if that resolves the issue.

If the CPU and RAM checks out, the issue may lie with the graphics card. Verify that the graphics card is properly installed and connected to the power supply. You can also try removing and reinstalling the graphics card to ensure a secure connection.

Additionally, check the power supply to make sure it is providing sufficient power to the system. A faulty or underpowered power supply can prevent the system from booting properly and displaying an image.

If you've gone through these basic troubleshooting steps and the issue persists, it's possible that there could be a more complex hardware problem, such as a faulty motherboard or other component. In that case, you may need to seek further assistance from a qualified technician.
