No bent pins?

As others asked: which RAM, exactly?

As others recommended: try with just one stick of RAM but also, have you set the RAM voltage?  That's an unlikely cause but you may as well get it taken care of if you haven't already.

On the mother board next to the CPU fan pwr there are  five (5) blue LEDs.  ALL of them must be on.  if not look at the atx cable to mother board cable. idea

Hello.... Is it me you're looking for?


« Reply #14 on: 23 November 09, 10:17:43 »

Could we please get some ansers to some of the earlier questions?
What RAM? Did you test with one dimm only?
Did you test outside of pc case on a non-conducting surface (not the bag the board came in!!)?

If you don't give the ansers we need, we can't help you...
