On sep 21 2019, there was heavy downpour in the area I reside, on this day my pc did not turn on when I switched on the Power button.

I took the PC to the service centre, but the very next day, atfrist the technician said it might be the dead motherboard, so he would be contacting the manufacturer for a replacement or refurbishment, within a few minutes when I left the Service centre, the technician called me and informed that PC booted, and said that he just pushed the 24 pin Wire from PSU, as it was loose, so I took the PC back to my home, but again in my Home PC did not turn on.

I just left the PC untouched for a day and tried to turn by switching the power button on the case, few times nothing seemed to work, on 25th sep, when I randomly pressed the power button on the PC, it turned on.

From 25 sep to 16 Oct I faced no issues, in my PC,

On 17th Oct again there was heavy rain, When I tried to switch on the PC, SAME PROBLEM appeared again.

Since the problem occurred on Rainy days, I am wondering whether the humidity in the atmosphere affects the hardware components preventing it from turning on,

This is the thread, where I previously posted all the problems related to this issue.
