Maximus viii formula not booting

Hi everyone

Already had my pc for about 2 years now.
Ive already tested every single component with my other pc to exclude component failure.

My problem is that my pc was in sleepmode and i plugged in an external storage into the pc.

When i did that for a second he started to boot and then just powered off.

Already been trying for about 2 days to get it back on but without any result.

When i press the power button nothing is happening, no beeps, no q-code, no fans, no leds nothing.

But there is one odd thing my start and reset led is blinking together with my recycle button (cmos reset button) on the back.

What I did so far.
- changed CMOS battery
- took out wifi module
- pressed cmos reset 3 sec - 8 sec
- pressed start button 15 sec - 30 sec
- pressed start and reset
- connected another PSU
- tested every component with other build.
- tried to start with only cpu, gpu, psu, cpu-cooler and 1RAM
- left it for 8 hours without any power and without cmos battery.

Hopefully someone here will be able to help me get it back up and running again.

It would be painful to see a motherboard of this price fried by an external storage (that is not giving me any issue on any other device btw).
