Fuck, i done screwed up. Got new ram (G. Skill Ripjaws X), installed it, tried turning on pc, and my monitor is blank. The monitor itself is fine, but the screen just stays blank. I tried reinstalling the old ram and its still fucked up. Tried resetting my CMOS but it didn't seem to do anything (not sure if i reset it with the right steps, i was given vague instructions). Not sure what to go /g/
Have you tried turning it off and on again?
Do you have a multimeter?
>>52182589
No i don't
>>52182592
Probably unplugged something like the videocard when replacing the RAM
>>52182622
I assure you, that is not the problem.
>>52182567
nice I just ordered G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series 32GB (4 x 8GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 for my Hackintosh build :)
>>52182668
Nice man, hope you don't have the same issue i ran into
I hope you shorted your vidya card with ESD
bummer... should have gone with corsair
>>52182567
you unplugged the pcie power cords
put them back in lad
I hate G.Skill ram with a passion.
It's truly ram for the poorest of poorfags with fragile timings (required for 1600mhz). NewEgg has been buttfucking all of us.
Switched to corsair ballistix recently and mobo auto-detected correct settings and stable as fuck.
>>52182768
>corsair ballistix

(but corsair is better than g.skill too)
>>52182567

Is your PC posting? Is there an accessible error code, either through an LED or speaker beeps?
>>52183042

Wrist strap
>>52183135
You are the retard
>>52183170
check mobo manual to see if you have a jumper pin you have to connect to reset cmos or if you only have to remove the battery and hold power button for 30 sec to drain.
>>52183308
I did the latter
>>52183440
check the manual to see if it was the correct way.
