Now can't even bootup. Beep x1 and keep repeat.
GPU fan spinning, CPU fan spin and stop.

Listen to the number & type of beep for confirmation on problem.

> Desktop BIOS Beep Codes:
> What BIOS Self-Test beeps mean

Remove the components parts including the RAM, and re-seat properly & firmly.

As for gold contact.. do use eraser to polish the contact and clear the bits (away from the motherboard) and put back firmly & evenly.

Can't find my mobo on the websites.
It is one short beep, powerup then died down.
Then powerup and died down.
Then repeat forever

Ah. I think the Channel 2 Ram of the mobo is faulty. If I use only channel 1, there is no problem whether i use Ram A or Ram B.

Mobo RMA..... How to check RMA expiry date without invoice?


Edited : Nvm. More than 3 years sure no warranty already.

See if there is any sticker on the board with a string of number divided like a box. See if there is any marker stroke on the sticker. As those marking indicated when the distro got the board.

Else check with distro base on the s/n of the board date with the sticker on box of the motherboard.

Thanks. Guess I will use 1 ram for the time being. Urgent case. Coz all my company and work data inside HDD. This is the only PC I use to work.
