Guys,
I have built a low spec machine with the bellow components. I know what you are all going to say, 'Why did you buy low spec compenents? Because i wanted to know how to build a basic computer regardless whether it was i5 or pentium 4..... and so on'. I have physically connected everything in place, when i turn my pc on i see the motherboard screen display then it goes into a black screen indicating that i need to modify the bios settings and time/date ect.. From the point of turning it on and seeing this screen, it totally shutdown within 10 seconds. I hear no beeps or see any specific error codes. Based on the components i have purchased, can somebody tell me what would be the likely reason for this please? My first initial thought is that the quality of products is somewhat low however, i also considered that could this be that the RAM is not of a good quality make? What i don't want to do throw away all my compenents since and start again as i want this working, which is why i am suspecting it could be a RAM issue.
