    PC Needs Ram Removing and Reinserting Everytime It Boots Up Otherwise No Display Message

    So I got a PC tower cheap second hand. The guy selling it got a new one for his birthday so let his old one collect dust for awhile

    But the pc tower needs ram taken out and reinserting everytime it boots up UNLESS the Ram is taken out and put back in otherwise I get No Display on my monitor

    Any idea on what the problem could be? I was thinking bad Ram sticks but why would they work when taken out and reinserted? Maybe a faulty dying motherboard?

    Or does the RAM and RAM slots need properly cleaning?

    Thanks

    Worth barring in mind that once the RAM sticks are removed and reinserted the PC works like a charm.. no display issues and I was on it for 5-6 hours afterwards with no issues. Which makes it even more bizarre

    Thanks

        You need to provide information about your computer, is it a custom build or brand name such as Dell or HP, if a brand name, provide the model name or series number (not serial) if a custom build post the brand and model name or number for the CPU, MB, the RAM (including the amount) add on video card if one is used and the PSU (power supply unit) providing these details will enable folk to better assist you.
