Hey all.
I am building my first PC and ran into trouble with the DRAM light turning red. Originally it was blue, which I took for it working properly, while I was trying to fix another beep code issue which went away when I realized that my CPU fan was plugged into the Chassis Fan socket.
Once I switched that and tried to boot the computer the DRAM light turned red and I got one long and 2 short beeps in the post beep code. I tried using only one stick, using that stick in different sockets, and switched out the RAM that I bought for the RAM in another computer. What is also odd is that once the beep code starts it doesn't stop, nor can I turn the computer off from the power button. I have to unplug it or switch the power on the back of the PSU.
Any suggestions as to something I am doing wrong, or are the memory slots on my motherboard damaged? Thanks in advance.
