It sounds like you may have faulty RAM or faulty RAM slots. You're going to have to "memory dance" to find out which is the problem. Not sure how many memory sticks you have, but you can test the machine with one at a time on different slots to see if it will POST. Keep doing this with the other memory modules until it fails POST, then you will find out what is the problem.

Another reason if you think you connected everything.

The mobo doesnt support the CPU you installed on it. The version of the BIOS on the mobo has to support the CPU.

Before it'll post. If it doesnt it wont post, or turn on

And make sure the ram is in the right slot/s. Oherwise it wont post either
