Hello everyone, I've just upgraded to something that's still quite old yet noticeably newer than my current setup. During the installation, I noticed the DRAM light was flickering on my motherboard. It seems the system isn't properly powering up, and what's odd is that the fans suddenly lose power and reverse direction when the DRAM light turns off. I've tried several fixes: reset CMOS, checked the pins and battery, cleaned the CPU slots, removed and replaced RAM sticks, and even swapped out the power supply. After reinstalling everything from my old system, the same issue persisted. This made me suspect a problem with the power supply—even after replacing it, nothing changed. It's strange since four of the RAM sticks came from my upgrade and two from a completely different machine.
