Build: Asus X99 Deluxe ii, 5930k, 16 GB G. Skill 3200 Ram, P1 Crucial 500 GB
Finally had a chance to buy a 32 GB Ram kit for my X99 mobo. So I took my old G. Skill kit and installed the new one. It hung and it won't post. Turned it off (long press power button) and turned it back on again. Same thing happens.
So, I took the new kit off and installed my old one.
Finally, it post but now it keeps getting stuck to automatic repair and it BSOD. No big deal, went back to BIOS and load optimized default. Restart computer and it keeps doing the same issue. See windows logo, automatic repair starting and it BSOD again.
So, i tried to use one stick of RAM this time, using the furthest slot on the right from the CPU socket - same issue. So at this point of my troubleshooting, im just using one stick of RAM.
So, redownloaded the newest BIOS (1709), reflashed it, restart, load optimized default and restart again. Same fking issue. Automatic repair starting then BSOD right after.
So, installed the old Intel SSD that i had originally installed (clone this to the newer P1 M.2) and disabled the Crucial P1 from BIOS. SAME issue.
So, created a Windows 10 repair USB, booted from it and i just see a Windows Logo. And the computer turns off.
Went back to the BIOS, and booted the USB from there... Again, I see the Windows Logo and it shuts off.
So while the computer was shut off, I double check my RAM installation. It could be it wasnt seated properly. I took it off and reseated it a handful of times just to be sure.
Turn on the computer, booted it off the Crucial P1... Same problem.
Disabled M.2 slot and booted it off my Intel SSD... And still the same problem.
Im running out of ideas to do. Do you guys have any suggestions?
I have a bad feeling I messed up my RAM slots and this could be a hardware problem .
