DRAM and CPU light up red on the motherboard when I start my PC.
I have had my PC for about two years, and up until now everything has been fine. I was playing a game (MW2) when my monitor went black, not detecting a signal from my HDMI 1, and my keyboard turned off. My pc tower stayed lit and everything was working (like the fans), except I couldn’t get my pc to display onto the monitor. On my motherboard, a red light is displaying on DRAM and every so often it flicks to CPU. I’ve already removed and reinstalled both my sticks of ram, and nothing has worked.
Any feedback and/or help is much appreciated. Thanks!!!

Test the sticks one at a time. Clear CMOS and test with one stick. See if that changes it. It sounds like it's at least trying to train or it could be hanging on initializing the memory controller and restarting intermittently. How long exactly between it flipping to CPU?
