Motherboard displays QCODE 55

[Mike3k24]

Hey everyone, so I just built a pc, looks like it booted up fine, but my monitor seems to not be receiving a signal. My pc has RGB which all is lit up so I assume the problem rests within my monitor in which I am using DVI. Here’s a picture to show you what I mean (https://imgur.com/a/DzAGV)
Can anyone possibly help me figure this out? Here’s the build if you need https://pcpartpicker.com/list/Tpkr4C
The ram is gskill trident z rgb, and it lights up.

Hi, Try leaving single RAM module installed and testing each slot.

Okay, will try right now.

Okay so, tried the slots, apparently only the 3rd slot works I think, so now I’m stuck on QCODE A9 with no display still

Try removing the CPU and posting here a picture of the CPU socket.

Ok so I managed to boot, now I’m in the bios, how do I set my boot override? I set the boot option #1 to my SSD and #2 to my HDD. Boot override says E1 My HDD E2 My SSD.

Nevermind, managed to set it, what do I do after I just saved my changed to the bios?

You can start installing Windows, but will you run the board with single RAM module working?

I don’t plan on keeping just 1 stock but I’d like to get through the whole process of windows and stuff first and see if the stick is working later. Anyways every time I save and exit, I get booted right back into the bios. Help?

I'd RMA the motherboard...

Turns out my flash drive wasn’t bootable, probably because I had to do it from a Mac. My friend is dropping off his flash drive for me.
