I’ve started my new PC selected the language and after that I’ve got a blue screen. Now whenever I turn it on I get an error “this user can’t sign in because this account is currently disabled”.

After I press okay it just freezes. I have a USB recovery with windows but I need help to fix this or install the windows from the USB

#

If I quickly press enter it will go to a screen like this and ask a password and freeze

Whats the bluescreen error?

manic mountain
#

Something about memory, so I’ve removed the ram and put them back again, now it’s not giving the blue screen but it freezes

wispy slate
#

From the picture in the other thread the DRAM light was on

manic mountain
#

Yes so I’ve removed them and put them back

I'd try one stick of RAM at a time

manic mountain
#

It’s off now

#

But when I turn it on it doesn’t make any noise

#

I’ve read on other topics that it should beep

wispy slate
#

Well it can make one beep,

manic mountain
#

I’m thinking to reinstall the windows, but not sure how to

wispy slate
#

Do you have a working PC?

manic mountain
#

Yes I got my laptop and I got the USB that they gave me for recovery

wispy slate
#

Plug the Recovery USB in a USB port

#

Press F4#

#

At this point I think its a bad memory stick

manic mountain
#

Should I try with one at a time?

wispy slate
#

Yes, take one stick out and try it with one

manic mountain
#

Does it matter the slots that I put them in?

wispy slate
#

Not really

manic mountain
#

The light is on without even turning on the PC

wispy slate
#

Try the other stick?

manic mountain
#

I tried them both in the second slot and when I put just one of them in the first slot

#

Both of them one by one I mean

#

Same thing with the other stick in first slot

wispy slate
#

So if somethings in the first slot it puts up the DRAM light?

manic mountain
#

Yes in first slot with any stick light is on and second slot same

strong glen
#

Might sound stupid, try slot 3

#

I maybe wrong but I think that might be the default slot if you’re using just 1 stick

manic mountain
#

Same, I will try the other one

manic mountain
#

Same with any of the sticks

#

Oh 4th one with one RAM no light

#

Put the second stick on the 4th slot and no light

#

Turned it on and it froze and now the red one is left on

#

Yo we'll restart for yo

#

Windows turned gangster

manic mountain
#

😂😂

west hamlet
#

Try put one in slot 2 if you havent already

manic mountain
#

Tried and the light is on

#

One is slot 4 works but computer freezes after a few minutes

#

I just want to turn it on 😭😭

#

It feels like is booting really slow

wispy slate
#

At this point I'd email official support

manic mountain
#

Darn it, I was afraid of this

#

Will anyone answer over the weekend?

wispy slate
#

No

#

They only work monday to friday

manic mountain
#

Amazing

#

Thank you

wispy slate
#

But it seems the memory is bad

manic mountain
#

It seems strange both of them to be bad

#

I tought they test these systems before sending them

wispy slate
#

They do, Maybe something got banged around in transit

manic mountain
#

Oh

#

Honestly, this happens, they will be quick to resolve it though, I had to send mine back twice in 2 weeks. CP were amazing to get it sorted though.

manic mountain
#

My problem is that I’m not home Monday to Friday 8-17 😵‍💫

Best of Luck 🙂

#

How did you fix it?

manic mountain
#

I just kept on stick of ram on the 4th slot and reinstalled the windows after windows was installed I inserted the second one and they are both working and recognised. Not sure what was the actual issue. The PC still starts a bit slow but I’ve read that this Asus Rog x870-f has this. Just done a BIOS update this morning and seems that it has improved a bit from 80seconds to 60 seconds. It just takes it’s time to verify all the components

wispy slate
#

Glad its working though, It seems the windows install wasnt cleared properly after they did testing and they didnt put it back to the OOBE to set up a user account etc

manic mountain
#

I had to downgrade the video card and now it’s 22 seconds. It’s decent enough. I will have to check BIOS settings but I need to read more tutorials about that before I break something 😂😂

wispy slate
#

Why did you downgrade your GPU?

manic mountain
#

Just download an older version of the driver and when you want to install it will tell you that you already have a newer version and if you want to downgrade
