Have a PC with 4gb of ram and wanted to upgrade to 8gb. Bought a new 8gb stick and followed all instructions to replace the old 2x2gb sticks. When I then go to turn on the pc it boots and stays on, but there are no beeps from the motherboard and visual output. Fans are all working and all lights are on. Hard drive spins up.
Tried putting the old sticks back in but it does the exact same thing.
Tried unplugging one component at a time but still nothing.
Tried clearing CMOS via jumpers and removing battery still nothing.
power supply works fine in another system.
is the motherboard to blame then?
