    I messed up a clean boot


    Something was wrong with my computer so i tried to do a clean boot. I messed up and accidentally disabled all programs and restarted the computer so now my computer wont let me login. It keeps saying my passwords incorrect and there is no internet connection.

    I did everything in “Restart + Shift” but everytime i click something the screen goes black and it goes back to the lock screen. Nothing ever changes. Ive also tried doing the usb with the windows 10 software thing

    :)

    Help me clean up this mess

    Wires everywhere...looks sloppy.
    How would you clean up this mess?
    I hate the right hand side of this system, I wish the GPUs PCIe plugs were on the cards ends and not the top..
    Suggestions?

    The tutorials provided are just a list of troubleshooting steps. Use only the steps which apply to you.

    Since none of the troubleshooting steps here worked, I'd suggest you do a Clean install.
