Hi

this is the fist time that when i tried to boot pc from a shutdown state my pc gave me 3 or 4 beeps, after that the pc reset and it boot up just fine like nothing happened, i checked and restarted the pc several times and also checked bios settings nothing seemed wrong or different

i have a
MSI M9 Ack
64gb ram
zotac 980 ti
6700k intel
850 corsair platinum psu
samsund m.2 ssd
additional ssd for storage

I have a wacom, xbox controller, mouseconnected to usb port, a headphone in the 3.5mm

Update

I kept shutting down the pc and rebooting while trying to record on my phone, It was 3 beeps and the error debug code was D6 that it was stuck on

running through google i see that it seems like a RAM issue, but i am seeing all available ram


im trying to diagnose what the beeps were, if anyone could help


Here is the video i uploaded on youtube

to debug start with one ram stick. if the same error there pull the gpu. if the error stops with the gpu pulled turn the pc off and put the gpu back in make sure it was not a seating issue. if the error comes back try another video card. if the error stops with one ram stick. put in a second stick. if the error stops with two stick pull those two and put one of the untested sticks in. if the pc beeps with one or two of thsoe sticks in swap each stick. if the system beeps with one rtam stick and onboard video. try another power supply to rule out bad power. if it still beeps then you may have a failing mb or cpu.

I had tried removing everything and reseating all the items as you adviced, i also tried one ram stick at a time, nothing worked, but apparently when i tried to switch off the pc several times it began to refuse to even switch on giving an error debug code of A1

so i tried resetting the cmos by removing the battery, and found out that the problem (so far) was the xmp profile ever since i pdated the bios to help run the m.2 ssd

so when i tried to enable the xmp profile i kept getting the 3 beeps and d6 and a1 error

switching it off made it work properly (so far)

heres to hoping that the problem doesnt return, but i am wondering why this only began happening a few days ago
