Is my RPi4B dead?

When powered, the red LED stays lit, the green LED blinks very briefly when I give it power. Then nothing. I have tried flashing the eeprom with different SD cards using the PI Imager to make them, still no cigar. I have a multimeter, is there a test I can do to see if it's fully toast and a £45 paperweight with a red led on it? Thanks guys.

you can test the 5v pin ig. connect the possitive side on the multimeter to the first pin and the negative side to a ground pin

then we can test other things

I hope it's not toast because I just bought the OneNineDesign case/keyboard attachment for it

and it's for the 4 not 5 so prolly wouldn't work with it
