OK heres the deal I was idiot, forgot cpu cord, now It seems like when i reboot sometimes the RAM light comes on, and stays on, then if I reboot again it will go off and load the bios etc...... like I just installed windows and when windows install needed to reboot now I got red ram light, but if I reboot again manually light goes off?
