Took the sticks in and out about 5 times, now all light up. Which is new hut stops at 62 over and over . All power off switch to bios B 62 , back to bios A stuck on 62 help
 
put one ram stick in make sure the mb bios is up to date. with led ram you may have to bump the ram voltage up. with one ram stick see if the other two slots are dead. if they are run the intel cpu test see if it fails. with the newer cpu if the cooler on to tight it can short out the ram. if it not the cooler check for bent pins under the cpu or a cpu seating issue.

Ill try those but this is old build with upgrade. 5820k cpu nothing new, plus its been working for 3 years. 2 modo is not going to bios at all do not know why. Iv tried going through settings in WIN10, thats when it would boot with old ram in. I keep trying to go to bios but can not , Lost ! Goes past it in fast boot, dont know how to disable it
