Hey everyone, I just updated my motherboard, CPU, and RAM to AM5 and DDR5. Everything seems to be running smoothly, but when I power on the PC, the DRAM error light comes on during startup and then disappears once Windows loads. I’m curious if this is normal or if there’s something deeper going on that could cause trouble later. Any insights would be great! Thanks!

the board goes through every error light and then powers up again, it could be the same for you too—just normal for me.

Checking your system status—CPU light flashes briefly, then holds DRAM light during boot. Are you using an Aorus B650M Elite board?

Running on an ASUS B550 F is a popular choice for its performance and value.

It seems like you're confirming the process is proceeding as expected. The system is performing its routine checks, including a RAM verification, which causes the RAM indicator to display.
