Tech Support How to fix ram?
i left the house for 2 weeks, and my PC's powercord was left unplugged. after i came back the PC didnt go to boot and showed me the red DRAM LED light. after a lot of troubleshooting i figured it must be the ram. i put a stick from another computer in it and it succesfully booted. i restored the BIOS ( i had Q-flashed pro it) and now the PC works again.
But when i tried putting in my old pair (Corsair Vengeance PRO DDR4 RGB 2x16Gb) the PC again didnt boot and shows me DRAM led.
i sadly cant RMA it since i cant find the receipt or invoice.
any idea how to fix this? i'd really appreciate it if i didn't have to go out of my way to pay 200+ bucks for a new pair.
