Laptop won't start after cleaning and applying new thermal paste
Hi, Recently I decided to clean out my Toshiba Satellite Pro laptop, given that it just so dusty it was constantly overheating. I spent an ardious 3 hours to remove all of the factory sealed screws by hand, then I dusted out the CPU fan with an air spray can, and finally applied new thermal paste. After assembling it back together, I come to find that it will no longer turn on! When I try to charge it, the lights on the front pulse for a second, then cut off, then pulse etc. If I had to guess I would say this is a CPU or PSU problem, and perhaps I failed to assemble the CPU back together properly? I was also grounded the whole time. I'm almost certain everything is back in place, including the wires. Any help would be appreciated. EDIT: There is also a clicking noise coming from the PSU.
