My friend is building his computer and originally his computer would boot up and fans would run but no display. He said that his gpu would periodically spin up and down but he says that might just be what it does.
So we tried to figure out why there was no display. We took out 4 pins from the 8-pin connector on the motherboard and then took out the ram. 3 beeps started on the computer telling us that there was no memory, so then we plugged in one ram and there was a display. But then we put in the other stick and it wouldn't boot again
So we tested every ram slot and each ram. We put in one ram into the red slot and it booted, we put the other ram in that same slot and it booted. We put one ram into the black slot and it booted and it booted with the other, but it never booted with both inside, in either red or black slot.
What could be the problem that only allows the computer to be bootable with one ram?
