Troubleshoot Ram - Pt 5 How To Test Ram If Computer Not Turning On Or PC Turns On But No Display

- Опубликовано: 13 июл 2024
- You need to troubleshoot ram issues if your computer doesn't POST. This is different to testing RAM if you computer does POST with something like MemTest86. Either one or all of the RAM sticks can be faulty, or one or all of the Ram slots can be faulty. The best thing to do is to test the RAM in a different known working system, and also to test known working RAM in your existing motherboard. Listening to the beep codes during POST will give you a lot of indication to the problem. Sometimes just cleaning and/or re-seating the RAM can resolve the issue.

Good to see a Brother around, especially for tech tips. Jazakallah.
BarakAllahu feekum!
@@HealMyTech1 Help me plz , guide me 🙏🙏
I have HyperX fury 8+8 GB 2 ram sticks pc do not boots with 2 rams
But both rams work One by one on each slot but they don't work together now but they did before but
When i boot pc With 1 ram and then shut down and put second ram together it will boot for this time , but after shut down i will have to repeat this step again..
I m confused because sometimes both runs together , sometimes not , BOTH RAMS are fine , both rams work on both slots one by one . 😭
I cant thank you enough.The beep codes were thing I had completely forgotten about since I built the computer about 4 years ago ( age 71 then). The computer failed to post yesterday and is now working well thanks to you. your video is clear and easy to follow WELL DONE!
🤣🤣 Its never the ram until it is
2:13 Why u pranking me
you mean that freeze?
bruh that also gave me a small heart attack
What happened?
@@omarbaig4899 gave me a large one
i got pranked too xD
I watched so many troubleshooting vids, and yours is the best of them, detailed and simplified at the same time..the uncut thing gave it more credibility, well done akhi.
Excellent background in education to help with problems that are so evident at times. This gentleman's video stopped my head from spinning out of control!!
I must give my thanks to you man! I changed the voltage on the ram for error and my pc was completely unable to do anything, i don't even know how i didn't think of simply changing ram slot! Thanks a lot!
My computer was beeping exactly like that this morning. Thank you very much for your excellent video. This is so comprehensive that it is just like listening to a lecture.
I love you. You literally just made my night been up since 5am trying to figure this out
I've been strugling 3 days straight to solve my ram problem bro.
Been struggling for 3 months now
Sameeeee
Hi man! Thank you so much for this video, I was really thought it was the RAM modules but when I saw your video it made me try some more ideas with to check them out again. It helped me take out the sick RAM and now it has all been healed :D
Your guidance not only saved me from purchasing a new Motherboard, but also helped me understand that 1 stick of RAM can affect the boot.
How did you fixed yours?
YOU are the BEST! If 2020 couldn't have gotten any worse, one of my 8gb stick decided not to be detected. After hours and hours of troubleshooting, the fix was as simple as cleaning the contact points with an alcohol pad.
This was very comprehensive and definitive. I liked it and it explained everything I needed to diagnose my sabertooth x58. looks like mine turns on, lights blink off, ram light stays on. test all slots, with old and new $15. no change. ram slots are bad. Mobo is R.I.P.
Unfortunately didn't help me with my issue, but I really like how you explain things in a very straightforward way. And kudos for using timestamps - they should be obligatory for any video over five minutes! :)
Awesome way of testing that's why it's best to have 2 computers to check parts. Thanks.
I made my PC unbootable by simply making a change of memory speed within the BIOS... I was using 4 sticks of ddr2 667/800 ram... the BIOS had the speed at 667 MHz... I switched the setting to 800 MHz, rebooted and that's when the PC wouldn't POST... it then started beeping 3 beeps 1 second long each... it cycled a couple of times then was silent but no post... HELP!
I also tried resetting the BIOS both with the jumper and pulling the CMOS battery but that didn't help... FYI
Thank you so much, your video is definitely the most helpfull that I found. I will remember too recommend this if I ever know someone that has any issues!
Thank you for teaching me about posting and what the beeps mean!
Any time!
Best tech video ever it had everything you need yo hear or see. great work keep going
Thank you for going through this process. It was helpful and answered my question. Thank you!
Thanks so much for the solid advice. I recently bought RAM, inserted it and.... Thanks, I'm wiser after your tutorial/s!!!
Great video and helped me with my IT class thank you!
Thanks for the tips my pc is working again! Great video +1 like
We need people like him , down to earth...
You re doin absolutely fine man. Thank you.
I appreciate that
Many thanks for your video’s. Cured my problem which is a faulty ram card. Quick fix which was very logical. Many thanks again.
The videos and series are great. Keep it going.
When you get a repair job, no matter how small or technical, good idea to film it and post your work up here on the channel as you have been doing.
Even those older PC Desktops that you want to convert to gaming build. Perhaps you can tear them down back to a bare case, and demonstrate the build process from the very beginning to completion
Another idea might be some videos on the software side of things. Primarily Windows installations from scatch, driver updates with a program like "Snappy Drivers Installer or DriverMax (I've tested and still testing these pieces of software, and they have worked a treat), applying the MS patches / updates, basic security setup, Windows optimization, particular software that you may be using, that you think the public could make use of, easy guide to backup solutions (really, how many people do regular backups??)
Anyway, just some ideas which I'm sure you may have already thought of, but even though they may have already been done over and over, it's still good to have them on your own channel for your subscribers.
omg you're my hero man !!! my laptop it finally turn on after unplug the ram !!! thank u so much
Seems to be a very common problem and good to see your very systematic approach. It would have been good to have some explanation on why ram issues prevent Bios post and what causes RAM and slots to fail suddenly.
What does cause ram slots to fail suddenly because I took mine out to check the name and look it up but now it won't work. Please help
@@jagopage9268 did you fix it?
Also dont touch the golden pins since you could be statically charged
@Zeto PR yes I fixed it a while back but thanks anyway.
@@jagopage9268how?
Thank you. I also fix old computers you help me a lot. I'm now a subscriber...
Very thorough sir! Many thanks.
This is first class. I bought a new Corsair M65 pro gaming mouse. I installed the Corsair software and plugged the mouse into the USB. The Dell Optiplex 9010 lasted 5 seconds before the display pixellated and the PC died, failing to boot and showing 3 orange flashes, followed by 2 orange flashes. The manual said it was likely USB failure. It wasn't. It was Ram failure. Wish I'd found your video earlier. Thanks very much.
Glad to hear it helped!
Your doing good work man keep it up.
Thank you very much for making this video. I really learn something about the RAM
Terrific videos dude .. very thorough, very informative... a bad memory module can be a serious pain in the a**.
My PC was randomly restarting all by itself. It would run a few hrs, then screen would go black & PC would reboot. That lasted a couple of days. Then it stopped displaying all together. PC would run but nothing would display. After trying everything a novice like myself knows (swap vga cable for hdmi, remove unnecessary peripherals, etc), I remembered that I had recently installed 4G more ram on the system. I removed that 4G stick (bought used on ebay) and wouldn't you know it, the PC came back to life.
Morale of the story: don't buy used ram on EBay :)
True, I've been lucky with used RAM so far, only 1 out of possible RAM was faulty, not a bad percentage for myself, bu for people who don't buy as often yeah its best to avoid...did you manage to get a refund?
@@HealMyTech1 Still in that 'refund/return' process.. vendor asked me to 'try to clean the ram stick', offered some very odd cleaning suggestions & then to try the ram again.
I'm not sticking that thing back in my system!.. lol :)
Very helpful as always, thanks a lot 👍
My God I thought I had to get a new set of dram luckily you mentioned wiping it with alcohol, saved me from sooo much trouble
Given your comment being 4 months ago, I take it this is still an issue with ddr4? Can you confirm?
@@Airasite yes
What alcohol did you use
@@pat_avx Hennessy or tequila
@@pat_avx just use rubbing alcohol it doesn't matter just make sure it dries off
Everything you said is happening to my machine.
Edit: you should really mention ram speeds. They affect system stability also.
Also, an example of system stability (after successfully booting to OS) can be shown with a video cutting to that point of time, as its impossible to predict it happening when you're recording single cuts.
Thanks for uploading.
Will bear that in mind when I remake this series more professionally, thanks for sharing.
Well demonstrated sir! Keep it up.
Excellent content, thank you very much for sharing your knowledge!!!
it worked instantly
i had two 4 ram of 2 different compacities
i took out 2 and it worked!
thanks
You're welcome!
Your are honest and clear in your explanation.🖒🖒🖒👏👏👏
Terrific videos! Thanks
Thanks for helpful information.
Your this video is so good to understand basic ram check 😘🥇
You've been a big help. Thank you
Hey, just tried upgrading my laptop RAM; had light on but no screen. Your tip of switching the ram to a different slot worked like a charm! Thanks!
Same problem only light on no screen changed the ram slot but same problem
And how much time does it takes for first boot
I have i3 and ddrl 2×4gb
@@shivamchoudhary9522 There might be an on or off button on the motherboard. That's what happened to me. I switched it on then off then on again and the screen worked how it's supposed to work.
Thanks for the tip
Hi have you got a link for where you got the audio cables from please? I have looked but I am having trouble finding one. Thanks!
Thank you very much.... Videos like this is very useful to identify problem....
Very informative Sir. Thank you.
You are welcome!
thanks this helped me so much
U saved my life dude, love ya
very detailed and clear. thank you
Like your videos i have started to repair my computers my self, 6 years ago i put a computer in to be repair, i had to pay £ 110, i found out all he did to repair my computer was replace the hard drive & thake the computer back to factory settings, as you know hard drives you can pick them up for £ 20 -30 +, so £ 80. of my money went on laber charges.
Thank you very much man you helped me alot
Thank YOU!
HELLO THANKS FOR YOUR VIDEOS THEY're very good i like them PLEASE KEEP MAKING MORE VIDEOS ME NOEL
Something else is up with mine, looks like failure on 3/4 ram slots. Your video is amazing, bless your soul
Same for me right now, did you find a fix?
@@Alternatesociety kind of, it seems that the 5950x has trouble operating with more than 3 slots filled. I mean, its not even worth having 3 slots so 2 would be most efficient.
it works now after that. the only reason i was able to confirm that was the case because i was helping my little brother make his PC and after experimenting, indeed it was the CPU that was somehow not vibing with 4 sticks of ram
Very informative! :)
Glad it was helpful!
That alcohol trick just saved me from returning my ram. Thank you!
How do you do that
great video I just added ram for a customer that I repaired..came with 4gb underside of motherboard and 1 slot under the door. I tried a 4gb ddr3 in the top slot and when I booted the drive light lit and then wwnt out and the laptop powered off. I went through 6 used ram same problem. The 7th ram stick booted fine. Somehow I forgot that bad ram could be the problem because the bios does`nt beep for lenovo, learned a lot from video looking for part 1.
Thank you .Iam not a computer expert but I know quite alot .I found your channel and this video re RAM Very helpful .and recognized many terms or DDR ram and AMD . I think the long version video not edited are very good .I do hope we see mere as many of us still have these older Server PCs .I used to have friends to diagnose ,eg graphics and fans and why I was gettting no picture but but I did know the c drive was ok (There many issues you mentioned on the graphics card which now make sense to me .I manged to fix mine but after along time -when I could have simply used the VGA as a test . Same with RAM VERY good ,I just had an unusual message indicating loss of ram - .I found you channel by random but I found it helped a lot example to replace the ram -or it could be the mother board wow this is 5 year sago and we are still using some old p cs or server pcs which were built to last .I would recommend this channel it accurate -god diagnostics also accuracy about Ram and mother boards as you say some DDR has to be the exact for the pc and manufacturer model .Many of us suffer fro techno fear ezampe taking ram out to clean it and how to put it back in correctly sometimes has to be done at an angle . I hope you do more the lonf videolead me to watch more as I was learning all the time -some part I would have know many I did not veso very good .Hope you do more videos with the old servers .as the videos wee not edited it was clearer to watch -clear spech very good .
You are the Best!!! Without you I'm gonna get beated by my brother!!
What did you do?
@@HealMyTech1 lmao he probably is still getting beat by his brother and can't answer you. But it's good to see a brother here giving tech tips to people
Fire........freeze........you scared me there! BUT IT WORKED!
Thanks man
Fire............2:07
Freeze.......2:04
Thanks again, have a good day.
Shukran, I have learned a lot from you
I had 4gb ram in my computer.
In 2020 my computer had some problems so I got it to a local shop and he fixed my PC.
It turned out I had some power connection problem.
But he took my 4gb ram and placed a corrupted 2gb on my PC.
I used my PC rarely so didn't care.
I had a laptop in 2020.
So I didn't mind.
But this June I got my PC with an extra 4gb ram.
And in 3 weeks my PC stopped starting and some blinks were there.
Finally in the end November I checked my PC and found out that the 2gb ram was faulty.
I have removed the ram and have even checked all the slots.
I will get another 2gb ram soon.
Thnx it helped a lot.
Useful video, explained good. I'm having an issue with my pretty new pc. While using it normally, the applications will freeze but the mouse is still moveable. The taskbar is unclickable and the applications cant be clicked either to move them around. Pressing ctrl alt delete and all those commands does not do anything. Only way to get out is to reset the pc manually. I'm currently running memtest 86 since I was told it could be bad ram. Any suggestions?
good uncut practical vid...I didn't know about the different warning beeps ?
thanks bro, learn something new everyday...!
Thanks so much saved me from buying a whole new pc
awesome very useful thank you very much everything is very skillful very interesting
Hi.
What about that when sometimes my PC turns on and sometimes it doesn't?
Because when it doesn't turn on the "Faulty RAM" led on my motherboard turns on. I've sent it back but they're sending it back cuz it worked for them for the first time.
If ram is not the issue (with proper check) you should be testing other components like the PSU to start.
Nitpicking a bit here but there's generations of slotted memory before DDR1.
You also had SDR and SIMM memory. There are even older types but then you're dealing with cards and then soldered chips.
As for comparability, the FX series suffered along with Intel's ability to take higher density RAM. Ryzen 1st Gen had similar issues but was corrected with subsequent updates and generations.
Thank you so much brotha
Hey I would like to join in this lecture

You should rename your channel to "British Syar'i Tech".
It would match the vibe that you bring.
By the way, nice videos!
Most of those helps me to build and troubleshoot my PC.
Nice job teacher
Salam brother from indonesia, thank you very much to all your share
Hi I got my new computer case yesterday, should I use my old rams or buy new rams for my new computer case?
assalamualaikum ,, sir i wanna ask if you permitted ..
when i turn on my pc , i didnt hear one beep ( normal 1 beep ) from my pc , but the pc run normally until entering the windows 7 .. so what happened with my pc ? .. please give me the solution of it
Thank you! sometimes everything can be ok and the only issue is that you unplug memory while cleaning your pc and then assembling it back just to find out that your pc turns off right after starting spanning fans. so I took out all sticks, put only one back turned on power, pressed launch button and checked if pc can see my one 4gb stick from bios. then I turned it off and checked every slot same way turn off change slot turn on and so on. untill I figured out that these is no issue and the only problem was an incorrect initial instalment of one of the sticks. make sure they click while instalment and make sure power supply is off
Well explained video.I also have black screen with no boot up.When I remove Ram stick I get a beep code.When Ram in nothing.Does this mean my motherboard and graphic chip are ok and it's a bad Ram?I don't have spare Ram to try or another pc to test existing Ram.
just watched your video on ram, i've never had an issue with my memory going out on me though,even after i swapped motherboards, i've been using ddr3 1333mhz and i was given another board with ddr2 800mhz dimms as well, never ever had issues with ram at all
HealMyTech yea I know but unfortunately they want us to pay for this and pay for that, so now I just don't trust any technology, no sort of technology should ever be trusted anymore cause they are not making anything to last not even past 5 years
Thank you brother
good information
u have to proud of ur self dude
Alhamdullilah bother u helped me
Hi, I have a Lenovo laptop with replaced motherboard. It works perfectly with a 8 GB ram stick in either slots, but it does not stat up with 2 x 4 GB ram sticks. Normally. 305 15IBD starts even with 4 GB ram stick. Any idea please?
That second one is my current situation. No post, no beeps. I got a new/used mobo thinking it was that. My last thing is to go to microcenter and buy one stick of ddr3. I have the same ram from that second pc in my current build. G.skill
great bro
helped me out in 2019.. lit
You are welcome!
Would it be a good idea to test Ram that was on a computer that had liquid spilt on it, that computer will no longer turn on, CPU fan turns on and turns off in 1/2 sec. i wanted to know if i could test the ram on my computer and maybe HDD/SSD
Thanks--did not seat right-you helped
Thank you bro
Thanks it works.
Jazakallah brother. Thank you
If tech videos were beautiful, this is how they would look.
