Hello,
I have had my PC ,which I built, for about 4 years ago, and it has mostly been fine. It recently started to freeze up, probably about once every day or so, and today it would no longer post when I tried to boot it back up. The current behavior is that the fans will spin and the lights will come on except for the blue light on the power button, and there is no post. When I reset the CMOS, earlier on after the problem began, that it successfully booted up, but that has been the only time since. Some things I've tried out and noticed.
Update: It seems like none of the RAM slots work anymore. I've tried all combinations with both sticks of RAM and I keep getting a beep code. I also tried with different RAM that works in another computer and I get the same beep code.

- I removed my graphics card but it doesn't seem to make a different
- When I remove my RAM, I get the beep notification telling me that there is no memory
- I tried using a different, working PSU and that didn't make any difference
