[SOLVED] How to deal with computer showing wierd stuff on BIOS screen and failing to boot into OS?

[Colorful Life]

The computer doesn't boot and there is no display so I re-seated the RAM sticks.

Then the computer is showing weird stuff on BIOS screen as shown below. And then gets stuck on it. It does not boot into OS.

Specifications:

Intel Core 2 Duo
2x2GB DDR2 RAM
GT 710 nVdia Graphics Card
1x SSD
2x HDD
DVD Drive
PSU: an old seasonic s12 something non modular (500w?)

As a basic functional test
Run memtest86 or memtest86+
They boot from a usb stick and do not use windows.
You can download them here:

MemTest86 - Official Site of the x86 Memory Testing Tool

MemTest86 is the original self booting memory testing software for x86 and ARM computers. Supporting both BIOS and UEFI, with options to boot from USB.

www.memtest86.com

Memtest86+ | The Open-Source Memory Testing Tool

Memtest86+ is an advanced, free, open-source, stand-alone memory tester for 32- and 64-bit computers (UEFI & BIOS supported)

www.memtest.org

If you can run a full pass with NO errors, your ram should be ok.

Running several more passes will sometimes uncover an issue, but it takes more time.
Probably not worth it unless you really suspect a ram issue.

I might guess that the graphics card is the culprit.
