So... Lately my PC suddenly stopped posting... Both keyboard and mouse leds werent lighting on as well. And since i don't have built in speakers in my MOBO i had to unplug part by part to see where is the issue coming from. When I took the rams off and changed their position it posted the first time. Then i decided to shutdown and put all parts again, leaving the rams in their new location. Went ahead to start up.. happened again "no post". So i opened the pc and again.. Changed from 1,3 to 2,4... Worked. Until the next shutdown. I tried clearing the bios by removing the CMOS battery.. no luck.. I thought it could be an issue during windows shutdown. So i opened the bios..and shutdown from there. This time new issue happened... it keeps restarting, but first restart all is blank, no led no display. Second restart a weird cursor showed on screen "Not windows or bios cursor" Then it restarted again to no led/display and kept looping. Any ideas how to fix this?
