HP Recommended
Product: HP Z420 Base Model Workstation

I was changing my windows settings in activate/deactivate windows features so I could use ftp and it started to update until 30%. After that, the computer crashed and turned itself off. When I went to turn it back on it just beeped 6 times and the light flashed red 6 times. I looked up the error code and it said to reseat the gpu (I have an rtx 2060) so I did. It still returned the same error code. I changed the gpu (gt 710). It still returned the same error code. I took out all the ram sticks and replaced them one at a time. It still gave the error code. I'm running out of ideas and don't want to buy a new motherboard. I've also completely removed it from power and reset it. The only problem I could think of it having is that the gpu was connected to a 6 pin power cable rather than an 8 pin but, i also used a gpu that is completely powered by the pcie slot and it didn't solve the issue.
