Infinite bootloop

Foster · April 23, 2020

Hi Guys

So my Pc started doing this really weird stuff where it freezes all of a sudden after a few minutes of inactivity, like if my Girlfriend Calls me and I stop using my Pc to speak to Her. For literally 10 min, when I come back the screen is completely frozen, no keyboard or mouse response. Another thing Is that the display sometimes won't work, the system is powered on but no display on my Monitor? After trying all I can, I usually force power off my PC by holding the power button for 10 seconds. I know this isn't ideal but it's the only way I've been able to get my Pc to work. Anyways today, my Pc froze again and I forced shutdown, and it's now stuck in a continously bootloop. It powers on fans spin then powers off, powered on fans spin then powers off all by itself. please Help...

That's a hardware error.

Start by testing your RAM with the following.

https://www.memtest.org/

Note that this test may take many hours. Allow it to run to completion (or until you get errors)

Hey Man, so it’s actually all fixed now. Really Strangely so though. I basically tried booting with just One Ram Chip in and It booted Up fine. Then I tried with both and it didn’t. I then tried with One ram chip and My Video card, it showed no display but booted up fine. I took out the video Card and tried with Both Ram Chips, ensuring they were seated all the way in Properly, then I Pushed the Video Card in too and It Worked? I was so Pleasantly Surprised, no Idea what could’ve Caused that.
Could a force shutdown with the power button cause Issues like that?

That is an odd issue!

No idea on how it's fixed, but glad it is
