It tested bad on Memtest86, and when I swapped it out for another stick from one of my other machines, everything tested fine. I was told I need to take…

My powerspec G232 has sat for about a month, and when I tried to turn it on the power led will just blink and the desktop won't fully boot. I held down the power button to force a restart and re-seated the RAM, which were two things I found online to try, but neither worked. What else can I try?
