I just received my new Desktop, and I followed the guide to install fan and SSD. I connect it to an HDMI monitor, with a Fedora Live USB, power on… and nothing. Not a BIOS splash, only the fan is spinning and the power LED is on. Any idea on how I should proceed?

Hi,

Power on, wait couple minutes and check if it works. It is caused by ram training. If it does not help, reach out to support.

You’re right. I think this should be mentioned between the installation guide and the OS install guide.
