So, after adding a second 2gb ddr3 1033 ram to this ancient PC, it stopped booting unless I remove the graphics card and use the integrated graphics.
The PSU is 400w so I was wondering if this is what happens when the motherboard isn't supplied with enough power.
A ddr2 stick uses less than 5 watts, so that's highly unlikely
A RAM stick is like 2W.
Make sure it's seated and the 6-pin is plugged in.

That shit ain't old.

Literally worked before the ram change. I changed the ram and it doesn't work anymore.
Installing a graphics card isn't in any way difficult or complicated, so it's not that.
You should probably plug in the 6pin retard
That PSU clearly says 450w.

Doesn't have a 6 pin socket, mentally challenged person.

That's a pic I got off the botnet

Three times two pins make six. Are you retarded?
Put the first stick in the second slot, if it doesn't boot, the slot is fucked. If it does boot, put the second stick in the first slot, if it doesn't boot, the stick if fucked. If it does boot, take the CPU out and check for bent pins.

Try plugging the GPU auxiliary power back in dumbass, most modern GPUs that have one will not start if its not plugged in.

Dude, is that GPU an EVGA 460 without the cover? I swear it looks just like mine.

bad ram or not seated properly
might as well add to this, i've been having a similar problem with an 8800GTS i bough because it was dirt cheap, every time i try to boot it up i get this long high pitched beeping POST, anyone know what's up? i'm probably missing something retarded like the GPU not being able to work without an external PSU, but what the hell.

The sleeve of your woolen shirt probably zapped the thing with static electricity and killed it.
