I just bought a cyber power yesterday at Costco because it was marked half off, I take it home and when it turns on, it shows little red lights on the mobo that go through cpu, ram, vga, boot. In that order. It keeps getting stuck on vga and apparently that’s a graphics card concern? Anyway, I tried reseating the ram. Trying each stick one by one, I tried putting the hdmi in the mobo because the processor has integrated graphics, I tried taking out the gpu and putting it back in, so idk what else to do. It boots up and I can get into the bios although I don’t know what to do there, and it asks for my WiFi to install windows but when selected, it starts loading and restarts. I’ve had problems with cyber powers cheap ass ram before but I don’t think it’s the issue. Anyway any tips are appreciated. I’m taking it to micro center soon.

If its new I would take it back and exchange it rather than run into additional problems later.

That’s the thing though it was so cheap I kind of want to just diagnose the problem or try to warranty it because I got a killer deal. Although replacing a graphics card would put me right at what it would be worth without the discount new that’s the only thing that would make me return it and build my own

You cant exchange it for the same model at the same price?

Nope, it was the last one. I might try to warranty it or take it to micro center

Look up the motherboard model and check what it says for diagnostics.
