yes it's another one of these, I have read through somewhere between 10-15 articles and forums, trying to find a fix, I've checked the bios where it say I have a total memory of 12288mb, all running at 804mhz coz I've turned it down to see if that helped, it didn't fyi, I've tried the msconfig settings to no avail, got told not to touch the virtual memory settings, getting kind of annoyed now as I was going to be replacing all the ram in my system with a 16gb corsair vengeance pack next week, not sure there is much point now though, my mobo is a gigabyte 990xa-ud3.

this happend to my computer twice. both times it got fixed randomly, what i find to work the best is re configuring your ram placement.
try switching the position of 2 of the same ammount. for instance, i switched the places of my 4gb ram sticks. then boot your pc up, if the display, keyboard or mouse doesnt turn on, thats fine. turn off your computer then put the sticks back into place. this fixed my issue.
