I cleaned my computer because it was very dirty. I did this process many times before, but today it just would refuse to post.

I just removed graphics card, CD Drive and RAM, so nothing big. I cleaned it with a paint brush I use to wipe dirt off small stuff. I put everything back together and it wouldn't POST. All the fans run, and all the bulbs are on. I re-checked all connections and all seem fine.

Any ideas?
 
paint brush + dust = static :O oops you've killed your system and need to buy a whole new one, best post a spec me a haswell thread up like everyone else :O lol sorry only kidding, maybe try removing and reseating everything again, that would be the first thing I would do and check all the power cables.

:D
Its working now, but only after playing around with the RAM.

For some odd reason, it won't start up with both RAM modules. It works only with one. I'm convinced its not bust, and I am doing it wrong...

Might go to a friend tomorrow and check out my stuff.

EDIT: Played around with the RAM and slots. And they worked.

Ok :confused::confused:
