I’ve upgraded the RAM in my pc about 2 years ago and it’s been running fine,
the pc has been powered off for a few months and the power supply has been changed for the exact same model.
ive also changed the CPU.
now the computer won’t boot with 2 sticks of RAM. (There’s only 2 RAM slots on the board)
any ideas?

Hello
you do not specify everything!
Memory has been replaced, what exactly did you install?
The pc has not been used for a while, ok ..
But the power supply was replaced before after.
The processor also, at the same time as the power supply, before, after?
What has it been replaced by?
the computer no longer starts with two memory modules, it starts with only one, one or the other?
