Computer turns on but monitor, keyboard and mouse won't work AND solid red DRAM LED light

laznboyyo213 · Oct 24, 2013

Hey so I my DRAM led light is solid red. I have had the computer for about a year and a half now. THings were running well until randomly the monitor keyboard and mouse wont read and my DRAM led light randomly became solid. The computer turns on and so does the fan. And there is no beep at the startup. Here are my parts

Motherboard: ASUS P8Z77-V LGA 1155 Intel Z77 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX
CPU: i7 3770K
RAM: Patriot Gamer 2 Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3-1600
Video Card: EVGA 560 ti
PSU: should be around 700w

Everything was bought separately and put together. I tend to leave my computer on over night. Just letting you know incase. Thanks. I dusted out the computer as well and readjusted my RAMS but still does not work. Does anyone know how to fix it?

try another power supply for testing. if the cpu does not get the power needed on asus mb the dram light will come on. )12v cpu pci eight pin power plug).

would the power supply stop working after a year and a half tho?

depends on the brand and how close you were running it near it max output.

smorizio :

OCZ ModXStream Pro 700W Modular High Performance Power Supply compatible with Intel Sandybridge Core i3 i5 i7 Intel 4th Gen CPU Haswell and AMD Phenom

Thats my PSU. I don't believe I have been running it on max tho

with intel mb the newer ones the memory controler built into the cpu. so to rule out bad ram or the controller you have to use one stick of ram and place it in all the slots one at a time and check the cpu seating and power. and look for bent pins if you just built or pulled the cpu.

( 1 ) Are you getting any codes?
( 2 ) Is it in sleep mode & not recovering?

No codes, but it could be the sleep issue because my computer was running fine, but then i had to go away for like an hour then when i got back this happened. Normally my computer would've been to sleep but not this time. How can i check if its just the sleep mode not recovering?
