Learning what kind of motherboard might help. Please edit your question to give us an idea of what you are dealing with. You might try updating your BIOS for one thing. Be gentle with the said computer, the parts, memory, etc., are very fragile, and static from you touching things can destroy them. 1) make sure the computer's motherboard is completely without power before you touch anything, (no lights at all on the MOB). 2) unplug the extra stuff, usb hard disks etc., that is not needed in booting the computer. 3) Sometimes, just because a PSU acts like it is alright, does not make it so.– vssherCommented Apr 22, 2020 at 1:13

Hey Vssher, thanks for the reply. The mobo is ASrock N68C-S. I've tried unplugging evreything unneeded still no luck. Unfortunately I cannot update bios cant be done just now as I'm only getting a black display. I was only able to get a display one time and in good it showed the date and time as constantly changing. Thanks again bro– Connor MacPhersonCommented Apr 22, 2020 at 2:09

Thanks for getting back to us, which type of CPU is installed, make sure you are not overclocking anything. Your MOB can only handle certain type of CPUs. Check here under support, is this one of your CPUs? I downloaded a manual of your motherboard, I have not read it yet. If you don't have one, goto the site and download one, most of the time RAM can only be put in certain ways. asrock.com/mb/NVIDIA/N68C-S– vssherCommented Apr 23, 2020 at 8:53

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. windows-7), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
