So I have recently started building my PC and I came across the problem where I had short circuited my motherboard on accident. The speaker I bought wasn't even beeping.
I replaced the motherboard and the speaker worked, which meant the motherboard had been fixed but there were 3 distinct beeps that told me that there was a problem with the RAM. I assumed I had short-circuited the RAM when I short circuited the motherboard and reordered the RAM.
Sidenote: for the motherboard and (now) the RAM I used an anti-static wristband to prevent the same mistake from happening.
Anyways, I replaced the RAM but i'm still getting the same 3 beeps and I made sure I didn't short circuit it! Any ideas what went wrong?
Here are the specs:
Intel - Pentium G4560 3.5GHz Dual-Core Processor
be quiet! - Pure Rock Slim 35.1 CFM CPU Cooler
ASRock - B250M-HDV Micro ATX LGA1151 Motherboard
Crucial - Ballistix Sport LT 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR4-2400 Memory
Seagate - Barracuda ES 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive
MSI - GeForce GTX 1050 Ti 4GB Video Card
MasterBox Lite 3.1 mATX Case
EVGA - 500W 80+ Bronze Certified ATX Power Supply
Thanks in advance!!
