I recently built a pc and installed Windows on it. one of the ram sticks was faulty so I had to wait to get it replaced. Now that I've got everything back together, it seemed to be working fine.
At the start it wouldn't recognize my HDD. I enabled fast boot and suddenly it recognized it. It worked for a day when suddenly today it randomly booted into the bios. I had earlier broken one of the SATA ports, but got it fixed through my warranty. Now my pc just doesn't seem to detect my HDD and shows a blank screen after the bios part. (While getting my motherboard fixed, some of the thermal paste came off and now my cousin's hovers at around 45-50°c at idle. I have loaded optimized defaults, removed and put the CMOS battery back in, removed all SATA connections except my hard drive and I'm still getting a black screen. Whenever I try to boot, my mother board gives out 4 beeps and then 1 beep (all short) and I checked Gigabytes website which said it was a real time clock malfunction, and that's why I removed and put the CMOS battery back in. It is a very new mobo too.
