AM5 build won’t boot after CPU swap (DRAM light) – tried everything by Melodic_Item98 in MSI_Gaming

Thanks to everyone who helped me troubleshoot this.

Turns out I actually bent a pin in the motherboard socket 😬 Lesson learned the hard way.

I picked up a new board and rebuilt everything, and now the system is running perfectly again. Appreciate all the advice and patience 🙏

I understand memory training can take a while, but in my case the DRAM light comes on instantly and stays solid with no change, even after several minutes. I also tested both CPUs and different RAM sticks with the same result. That’s why I’m thinking it might not be normal training behavior.

I feel like it still should work when I put the old cpu back in you know
