old computer must have had a short or something, i can't seem to get it to boot...

ordered a power supply tester so i can at least rule one part out

the board doesn't have any diagnostic leds either :/

@noiob also ordered one. i dont think it'll even get that far, but we'll see!

@sara they also make those pcie cards that display error codes

@noiob also ordered one of those, lol! i saw some kits for testing dimm slots, but not the actual ram itself

Follow

@sara RAM testing is what memtest is for

@noiob yeah but i'd need another system for that, potentially
