My RAM Really Scared me Today.

Was playing The Binding of Isaac with an XBox controller (corded) and it was more in my lap than anything while playing. Yes, I know I play in an odd way. Then my cord TURNED OFF MY DESKTOP. I hit cancel since it prompted me to. Then it wouldn't go back to desktop OR shut down. So, I use the force restart button by the power button on my case. So, it doesn't START after. I go behind the desktop, plug the PSU cord back in (somehow it was half unplugged) then turn it back on. It then brings up a screen I have NEVER seen before. Said some of my specs like mobo and things, then that memory slot A is having problems or something along those lines. I then open the desktop, then swap the memory in each slot. THEN IT STARTS FINE. I was confused after that.

It was fine, sometimes it just does that due to a power surge, or whatever, It's really nothing to worry about; That and your RAM may have been "knocked loose" I've seen that happen just once though lol.

It was probably knocked loose somehow since there wasn't a power surge
