Moment before disaster:
I grabbed this one cable from the hub which was daisy chained and unlisted to another cable called GDV, I plugged in the in the un listed cable that fit into D_LED1. I tired to power the system on and the fans were not spinning still.
the disaster:
While the unlisted cable was still plugged into the D_LED1 I grabbed the daisy chained cable GDV and saw on the mobo manual that there was a 3 pin headed that could fit it but it had a “cover” using two of the pins(which I removed). It was called DLED_V_SW1 while hoping for success I heard a zap and then smelled/saw smoke coming out of the PCIE slots. The system powered down
Current state:
There is no visible damage marks on all the hardware I used during that moment, I checked top to bottom and really was looking for any clue of what component was damaged, I had no luck finding anything.
Sign of life?
When I plug in the psu and use the mobo 20pin connector it shows a green blinking (if I plug in anything it still shows the exact same thing) LED next to the audio port, the psu fan doesn’t spin and the mobo won’t even turn on any components plugged in. That green light blinks every second I’d say. Nothing else lights up like the LED lights for the cpu/VGA/BOOT just that green light that blinks endlessly
what works
Green led light turns on and blinks
Psu is giving some sort of power cause how else would the led turn on
doesn’t work
Psu fan doesn’t spin
If i plug in any other cable/ component it does nothing and the green led still blinks
Specs used during the sadness
B450 Aorus M
Ryzen 5 2400g w/ stock wraith cooler

Was raining outside a bit but not crazy. Any help would be appreciated!
