These changes in motherboard lights before the login screen are not uncommon. The RAM issue you're experiencing might also affect startup, causing delays or crashes. The persistent orange light could indicate a power or hardware problem.

From what you see, the error light is within acceptable limits. Verify the RAM connection and test functionality without the updated case.

When installing new RAM, you may need to reset your CMOS settings so the motherboard can reconfigure the memory. It attempts to recall previous RAM settings and might freeze if it detects the DRAM indicator. Not every motherboard supports this feature, but some have done so successfully.

The computer functions smoothly with the older RAM when you disregard the motherboard lights changing color

Disconnect any power sources such as unplugging the computer or turning off the switch, remove the CMOS battery, and hold the power button for thirty seconds. If your motherboard features clear CMOS pins, you can gently touch the two pins together at the same time for thirty seconds.
