Hello, this is my very first build and I am having an issue when booting the system. I can only get to the BIOS by using 1 stick of ram in the first slot. Both sticks of ram work, neither work on 2nd slot.
When I try to boot with both the CPU and DRAM led slowly flash one after the other.
What could it be? Online it seems like it could be many things, is the CPU led flashing cause the CPU is damaged in some ways? It's a mini-itx build I would rather not take the CPU apart to check for damage before taking other, more simple, approaches to fixing this.
Thank you so much for the help.
