I have a 3 years old MSI GAMING 3 mobo, it wasn't used for a year, as I was out of country.
Now after a year, I booted up my PC, it wasn't booting up for me. ALl it was doing was lighting up for 2 sec then shut down, again lighting up and again shut down. Kind of loop. There was nothing showing up on the display.
I removed the case, checked all the components, physically they were okay.
The RAM I'm using is 2 x 4GB Corsair Vengeance 1600 MHz.
Now what I did was dissembling of all components.
This time I put my mobo on the top of a large book, cleared the old dried thermal paste, put a small amount of new one and placed the processor.
Attached RAM into slot 1 and 3 (for dual channel), and attached 24 pin ATX connector and 6 pin CPU connector from CORSAIR RM 750.
When I booted up, this time again that 'LOOP' happened.
Now I put my RAM sticks into SLOT 4 and SLOT 3, the PC booted up and BIOS screen came next.
In short, the RAM sticks aren't working on the following-
SLOT 1 & SLOT 2
SLOT 1 & SLOT 3
SLOT 2 & SLOT 3
SLOT 2 & SLOT 4.
Its working either on [/u][/b]SLOT 3 SLOT 4[/u][/b] or lone [/u][/b]@ SLOT 4[/u][/b].
I am unable to understand what's going on. Please take a look on this.
Awaiting replies.
