Computer fails to post due to red RAM and CPU indicators. Attempts include re-seating components, updating BIOS, resetting CMOS, and waiting over ten minutes. Testing RAM individually in different slots helped but didn’t resolve the issue after BIOS and CMOS changes. There seems to be a problem with the RAM installation—sometimes it doesn’t click properly, and the latches may not stay in place correctly. It might be worth checking the motherboard, CPU, and RAM connections again, or considering a test with a different RAM stick to isolate the fault.

The RAM issue appears unusual. Verify if it's actually DDR5 non-ECC and properly aligned. Test with a single stick only. If everything checks out but no boot occurs, inspect the CPU socket for bent pins and ensure correct mounting. Be careful—these pins are delicate. Confirm the CPU is inserted correctly. As a final step, consider removing the SSDs and HDD, as they aren't necessary for BIOS access and can be addressed later. Good luck!
