So I recently built a new computer and decided to give my friend my old computer (which I kinda ripped apart carefully and he merged his old computer parts (CD-ROM + Hard Drive) onto the current 0gdg8y motherboard, to our dismay the only thing we were missing was RAM, in which I bought a single stick (they only sold 1 per order, I thought there'd be 2) and I stuck it in, I booted the computer up and it sounded like it was gonna run but then the blue power button light turned from blue to orange and the motherboard made 2 short beeping noises that kept repeating. I have no clue what to do at this point. Anything TO do?

Re-seat the cpu and make sure the cooler is tight then make sure your cables are all seated properly.
