DRAM_LED

by Kenzi • 6 Nov 2011, 01:00 • Forums › Technology
PC won't give me video. It actually boots, but my keyboard, mouse and screen are not reacting.
Got myself some Corsair Vengeance 3x4GB, and whenever I try to boot I get the DRAM_LED and MEM OK doesn't work.
Tried to boot with my old RAM but doesn't work either.
Tried to clear bios already

The motherboard is a Sabertooth X58
Ill reward if someone helps me the fuck outta this

stopped working after a ram upgrade? maybe the ram slots on the motherboard arent giving good contact, try poking them a little

ive had the same problem/fix but with my gfx card being fucked

What do you mean by poking them a little?

sorry, had gone to bed, by poking i meant just putting the ram in and slightly nudging it up/down/left/right in the slot on mobo. maybe something loosened up a bit while switching the sticks. can also try unplugging everything (hdds, usb/speakers) and maybe booting with a single stick of ram

its a known problem on this board

remove alll usb devices and cable (the usb3.0 cable which goes from board to chassis too if you got one)

flash the newest bios version via bootstick

turn off the power supply
take the battery out
put the CLRTC jumper from 1&2 on 2&3 and wait 15sec
put him back on 1&2
put the battery back on
turn the power supply on
go to bios and load the the optimized default settings with f5

if that did not work i would try to deactivate the marvell controller and onboard sound
and enable the "support for booting via ps2 keyboard on space" function.
