Today I changed my power strip with one with more slots, so naturally I turned everything off, plugged the cords to the new power strip and tried to boot my system.
Alas, the motherboard is giving me an error with 2 beeps followed by 4 beeps and there is no video output to the monitor. The system is not booting at all, but all fans seem to work fine.
I've encountered this in the past and the issue was magically fixed on its own after a reboot or two, but now the problem persists.
I have tried re-seating CPU, GPU and RAM, I also removed the CMOS battery, drained the leftover power and put it back in but without any luck.
What is happening here and how do I fix it?
