Computer not booting or showing video after upgrade

by i.hate.bell . Updated 18 years, 6 months ago

I upgraded from 2 gb of ram to 4 and now my computer won’t boot or show video (We tried putting the old stuff back and it didn’t make a difference). It has showed video twice since yesterday but I was unable to do anything, I saw the post screen and it detected the new ram ok. My brother bought a new mobo today so thats brand new now (Asus M2N32-SLI Dlx.)I was hoping the new mobo would fix the problem but it didn’t help anything. We’ve gotten it to post normal a few times at least just the normal beep but no video. I was leaning towards replacing the video card but then I tried it again and the asus AI logo showed up and it posted normally and everything was looking good then it just stopped after detecting the DVD drive. I think I’ll take it in to get a diagnostic of the problem if I can’t fix it by the weekend.

Specs:
Asus M2N32-SLI Dlx
AMD X2 6000+
Corsair XMS2 DDR2 6400 (4x1GB)
Nvidia GeForce 8800 GTS XXX Edition 320mb
