Hi there, this is my first time building my own computer and I was refering to the first person build, and when I tried to turn it on to test it on the monitor, everything would light up (except for the ram, which I have messed with taking in and out, but I cant fix that)  and all the fans would spin, for about 10 secounds than the computer would boot off for 2 secounds and reboot. It also does not connect to the monitor. I have tried for 2 days to push everything in more, make sure everything is plugged in, pushed in the ram cards, and let it keep booting off and on for about 45 minutes. Can anyone please help me?

You messed ram by taking it in and out, and now they not light up? Can you explain this?

 

If your computer don't want to start, something is wrong with hardware. Hard to say what but from your description - probably ram.

 

And what you say is not boot loop but more like post loop.

No my ram was messup up, so I tried puttting it in in different ways

There's only 1 way to plug RAM.

But there's 4 slot you can try.

If you have 2 sticks, try putting it one stick at a time, try different slot at a time.

Wow thanks i tried different things and it worked! Thanks ALOT you really helped.

Glad to hear this, testing the pieces one by one always helps when everything has already been tried. You could also first, only connect the PSU and the CPU to the MOBO, a beep sounds indicating that the RAM is missing, this test indicates that the CPU FW is being read.

Then you connect the monitor and the RAM modules (one at a time) and try to access the BIOS, if you are unable to carry out that task then you are having problems with faulty RAM. Then if even at this step you can continue and have not found the problem then connect the boot drive and then the other storage devices one at a time, GPU and so on until you can hopefully find the hardware causing issues.
