Running Windows 10 and using a tv as a monitor via hdmi.
So a few days ago my desktop was in sleep mode but would not turn on. After trying a few things, I just held down the power button to shut it down completely, but it wouldn't work. Restart button didn't work either, so I hesitantly flipped the power switch to turn it off, but then it wouldn't turn on. As I was checking inside to verify the green light on the motherboard was on to be sure it was receiving power (it was), it turned on on it's own somehow and worked fine. Weird.
However, next time I trying turning it on (from completely off) it wasn't turning on. I flipped the power switch off and on and tried again, and it turned on (fans started and computer lights came on) but would not display (the tv works just fine when connected to my laptop), just like the first time it was in sleep mode but wouldn't come on. I noticed that my key boards lights don't come on, and the computer doesn't make any sounds when I unplug things.
Any thoughts? Could it be the power supply is faulty and not giving full power? Or something worse?
Thank you for your help in advance.
