Upgraded RAM and M.2 for my AN515-54-51M5 Laptop now it wont boot, or turn lights on keyboard on. I don't know what to do?



I removed the RAM i used to upgrade back to just having 1 (the original one) and it still did the same thing. I read around a bit and some said BIOS update? But I honestly dont think thats the case, but if it is how would I go about it?

Can I please have some help!

    As my colleague @MaClane says, put everything back in as it was and update your BIOS to the latest version if you haven't already, update Windows, delete any junk on your old HDD then clone your HDD over to the new SSD. Or if you are keeping the old HDD, reformat your new SSD and reinstall Windows on it and try again. It is not a RAM problem you have eliminated that

    Good Morning BTH0MP !

    Have you tested removing SSD and RAM and using the originals to see if it works well?

    Luckily I didn't need to do any of this. I went back to only having the original hardware and yet no avail. I did a power reset so I reseeded the ribbon cable for the power-supply and reinstalled everything plugged the laptop into the wall and everything booted and was recognized. Thank you for both of your guy's help.
