Hi, I was recently having issues with my computer power cycling, I figured it might be something with the RAM, I pulled 2 of the sticks, computer ran for an hour with no issue, figured i'd try the other two, still no issue again.. put all 4 sticks back in, when I started the computer there was a small white spark, so I instantly shut it off through the power strip. Now when I power the computer on, it gets to the 2nd of 3 red LED's, no matter what memory configuration I use, the DRAM light stays solid..
 
Solution
A spark is NOT good. There may now be physical damage, especially since no RAM is working. Have you tried a single stick?
If this is an Asus motherboard, you might try its MemOK function to see if it is able to configure your RAM. Otherwise, reset your BIOS to defaults using the jumper, and try with a single stick at a time first.
