Cant Get 2 Bread board PCs to post to bios....

[XIGRIMxREAPERIX]

I agreed to build a PC for a friend. I believe this is my 9th one.
Original Build: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/N3Bghq

The bios for the mobo has been updated to handle 7th gen CPUs (Bios chip has a 7.0 sticker which is the right bios acording to asrocks website). I have enough parts to build a 2nd PC. (2x 4gb ram sticks, 6th Gen Celeron, and a asrock B250M mobo) I cant get anything to post. I have tried to clear the CMOS (Revoming Battery for B250M, Moving the jumper on the original) I have also used my meter tested the rails on the PSU and everything seems OK.

I can get both mobos to post a no memory error when I remove all the ram sticks. Im at a loss and could use any tips, advice, or really anything.

So you have a 7th gen CPU in a 6th gen motherboard and a 6th gen CPU in a 7th gen motherboard? Did I read that correct? Did you try the CPUs in the correct boards and does it POST?

Yeah ive swapped cpus. Both Mobos can handle 6th and 7th gen.

Is the ram certified (QVL)for both(or either) of the motherboards?

Didnt answer my question. Does it POST like it should when you use it with the proper motherboards?

I just checked the asrocks website on the B250 Board.
4gb sticks - Yes
8gb stick - No

If you put the 4gb sticks in the B250 board, will it boot?
