Congratulations on your first Machine!

We need a little more than what you gave us. Laptop or Desktop?

Also, you may need a little help in how to isolate troubles. The first thing is: Take all external cards off the MB, and try to boot. See what INDICATION you have. Add in a board and see what changes.

You must have either a manual of what the BIOS beep codes are, or another machine to guide you in your next step. Get it?

Have FUN!

OK, so do you have ram in both slots. Your motherboard may require all ram to be inserted. Is there ram in each slot?

OK, so look at your Motherboard requirements, and verify if both slots need something in them. If they do, then you need another RAM Stick!

OK, according to the installation manual, it states:

"To ensure system stability, memory modules must be of the same type and
density in Dual-Channel mode."

That statement make me think that BOTH slots need to be occupied by the same type of memory.

Also note:
"Due to the hardware limitation, you should follow the installing procedures: first
memory modules, then graphics card. While uninstalling, remove graphics card
first if necessary."

I hope this helps!

Hello

Having a bit of a problem with my pc. Basically, my computer turns on but there is no display on the monitor. I fixed this by replacing the CMOS battery and this went good for like 2 months or so. The problem started when it happened again so I again replaced the battery. This fix only lasted like 2 weeks and now it's happened again. What I do at the moment to access my computer is take out the CMOS for like 5 mins and put it again. This seems to fix the problem but after a day the problem shows up again. I'm getting sick of doing this process every single day so I would like to know what is happening with my pc. Do you guys think this is due to a faulty mobo? Any help w...

No display on monitor, light blinks

Hello,

Yesterday, I was thinking of upgrading my RAM. I bought 512 MB SD RAM, but when I opened my CPU I realized that I am not sure if my machine has SD RAM in it. So, I didn't put the new RAM. I then tried to switch on the machine to run some utility for checking my RAM type.

Unfortunately, when I switched on my machine, my display didn't come up. Now, I am having no clue what went wrong as everything looks fine but there is no display.

When I disconnected my monitor from the CPU, I get a test message as no signal. My monitor looks fine. Please help in sorting the issue out.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Syste...
