After months of using PC without problems, CPU and DRAM debug lights stayed on
i5-10400f ASRock b560m steel legend Saphire Pulse rx 6600xt EVGA 650 B5 G.Skill Ripjaw 16gb DDR4-3600 was built a few years ago for gaming. I’ve played games on it without issues for years. Recently, while playing a game, it suddenly turned off and didn’t boot. It powers on but doesn’t display anything. The CPU and DRAM debug lights are active. I reset the CMOS but haven’t found a solution. I don’t have any spare parts or other systems to test.
I believe the CPU has been reinstalled, the cooler is properly secured, RAM has been reinserted, both modules have been tested separately, and the memory appears in the motherboard's configuration list.
Start with just the motherboard, CPU, RAM, PSU and GPU. Disconnect all other parts. If BIOS loads, add one item at a time and test again. Continue this process until you identify the defective component. If minimal configuration still doesn't work, it suggests a faulty part. Good luck!
