Enphenate Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 Hey guys, This past week my PC has been acting up a bit weird. Every time i turn on my PC it stays on for about 10 seconds (doesnt even get to the POST screen) than shuts off and restarts, stays on for about 10 seconds, shuts off and restarts and than finally boots into windows. So basically it takes 2 cycles of random restarts during a cold boot to finally stay and boot normally. Not really sure what the issue is, i just recently replaced my Corsair Dominator GT 6GB (3x2GB) with Corsair Vengence 12GB (3x4GB), and while i replaced the ram i did a thorough clean of my PC, dusted and readjusted some things. This issue didint start until a day or two after i made the changes. Can i get some input on this? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted December 1, 2011 Corsair Employee Share Posted December 1, 2011 We do not suggest mixing memory and that sounds like what you are doing, so I would just install one matching set and then go to BIOS setup defaults and enable XMP and see if the system is more stable.

Enphenate Posted December 4, 2011 Author Share Posted December 4, 2011 I replaced my old 6GB set with the 12GB set, not mixed and matched them. But every time i turn my computer on it restarts itself twice after a few seconds than proceeds to finally boot into windows. Any input on this?
