Guys, been facing this issue for a few days now so any inputs would be really appreciated.
First of all, the system config,
Athlon X2 5000+
Biostar A785GE
Sapphire HD5670 1GB
Transcend 2GB DDR2
FSP Saga II 350W
2 Seagate HDDs
Peripherals - DVD ROM, KB and Mouse.
The problem showed up sometime ago when suddenly after a shutdown, during the restart the PC just wouldn't go past the start-up/flash screen. Doesn't even reach the BIOS screen. So i reset the CMOS and then the PC booted normally. Again the next day this problem showed up and resetting CMOS did not work this time. So i removed the RAM, cleaned it (it was not dusty as such) and put it back in the same slot, and PC booted fine. The third time it happened, i had to put the RAM module in the other slot and only then the PC booted normally.
A week later, today when i attached another HDD, the same problem occurred. Booted fine after changing RAM's location again. What's failing here?
