Hello helpful people,
I built my first PC in august, and it’s worked fine ever since, just a little slow from time to time. I noticed that chrome was eating my RAM so I decided to upgrade. I got a SATA SSD, and two more sticks of RAM. I installed both items yesterday and my computer refused to boot. All the fans are spinning and the lights are on, but my monitor says no signal. I tried making sure my connection was ok. I tried a different port and a different cable. I thought maybe my computer was trying to boot from my newly installed SSD, so I unplugged that. That didn’t work and then I noticed that my DRAM LED is on on my motherboard. (Solid Yellow). I reseated my RAM in every possible way that my motherboard manual said. I made sure all my power cords are plugged in properly. I reseated my CPU, reset my CMOS (not sure what that really does). Clearly, nothing has worked and I am concerned. Does anybody know a fix?
My specs are:
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 3600
GPU: AMD Radeon Sapphire Prx 5600 xt
MOBO: ASUS TUF GAMING x570-plus (wifi)
RAM: 4x G Skill Ripjaws 8gb
PSU: Corsair CX Series 550 Watt 80 Plus Bronze
Thank you so much. I think I might go insane. If anything I said doesn’t make sense, my apologies; I don’t know as much as you all.
