    put just one ram stick, unplug DVD/HDD and any external USB device (apart keyboard) and try to boot (with the GPU plugged)

    last try:

    unplug AC power cable, keep only ram, GPU and keyboard plugged, take off the CMOS battery (it' the silver round battery near the ram slots).

    press power button twice and wait 5 minutes.

     

    put battery back, connect AC power cable and try to boot.

     

    if it still no boot...i don't have other ideas. Smiley Sad

    Well, the machine is working now. After the last step she beep, slowly start to arm the parts untill the sticks, only two are working.

     

    What can be the reason for two not to work? The stick itself or the slot on the MB.

     

    Thanks

    it's hard to know honestly but you can try to swap each ram stick (one at time) and check if it boots.

     

    if it's able to boot, probably the issue is the ram slots, if it's not able to boot with other 2 ram sticks, so it can be the 2 ram sticks.
