I have Built a few computers before with no problems but I'm no expert and need help.
MSI GeForce GTX 1060
G.SKILL Ripjaws V Series 16GB (2 x 8GB) 288-Pin DDR4 SDRAM DDR4 3200
MSI Z370 GAMING PLUS LGA 1151 (300 Series) Intel Z370
Intel Core i5-8600 Coffee Lake 6-Core 3.1 GHz
I'm using my old hardrive and power supply that worked for old computer
I installed everything and turned on pc and it booted, I got an error message saying I installed the Ram in the wrong slots. Then an error message about hardware change and windows was trying its repair it stayed on the screen for a very long time so I shut the computer off and put the ram in the correct slots as per the motherboard Manuel.
When I turned on the pc again all the lights and fans are going but nothing on the display. I unplugged the hardrive and power supply and took out the battery on the motherboard then put back in plugged everything in still nothing.
The only problem I had when building is that when putting in the heatsink for cpu i bent the connectors a bit but I used pliers to bend them back a bit and the heat sink does fit firmly on the cpu. I took off the heat sink and put it back on, the connectors were a little bent but it is sitting firmly on the cpu. but still could this make the computer not boot if so how do I fix?
Is there anything esle that it could be?
Thanks to anyone you might know how to fix.
