So This morning i decided to turn on my PC as usually, when all the sudden my PC began beeping like crazy 5 times pause 5 times pause and so on so i decided to open it up and have a look at it, 6 hours later i tried removing one specific ram card and that made it stop beeping (but only that one card made it work) now both my monitors wont turn on.


8gb ram/2 4gb
2 free slots

You can try swapping RAM cards and even changing to the other memory channel. Hopefully it is just something as simple as poorly seated RAM. I wouldn't have thought it, but the reduced RAM might not be enough for both displays- this might be more likely I guess if you're using on-board graphics chip.
