Hi, so after trying to boot up my computer, nothing happened.

Eventually I took out my 4 ram sticks and tried to turn it on, and it booted, beeping included, of course. However, while it was on without any ram in it, I tried inserting just one ram stick and the computer turned off immediately. I also swapped positions in which the stick was inserted and it did not work.

Is this happening because of a weak cpu or maybe a faulty motherboard? Thanks.
