Red lights flashing after wifi card upgrade

Got done installing new ax200 and connected keyboard - suddenly it turns on after red lights start flashing…

Anything to worry about there?

The flashing red lights indicate that the chassis is still open. If you’ve closed it up and screwed down all five screws and it is still flashing, reopen it and check the bottom of the input cover. There should be a foam or rubber square roughly in the middle near the back (vent side) that makes contact with a switch on the mainboard.

If you disconnect the input cover without disconnecting the battery first in BIOS, it’ll start when you re the input cover

This was super helpful my old board didn’t have the switch and the foam pad was actually slightly misplaced for the switch.
