I recently installed new RAM and immediately noticed the CPU light on my motherboard turned solid red. After waiting a few minutes without any improvement, I tested it with the previous RAM, which worked fine. This suggests something might be wrong with the new RAM. I also experienced similar issues with the old RAM before it resolved itself. Could you help me figure out what’s happening?

Check if the RAM works and confirm if the system reset was performed.

The RAM works well. Resetting the CMOS resolved the boot problems, though I initially saw no signal until I restarted quickly. Appreciate your assistance!

The RAM continues to trigger BSODs, and even after replacing it, the BIOS still shows issues. I've confirmed the BIOS is damaged, so I'm returning the faulty RAM.
