Hi...

Try cleaning the contact point of the memory modules "with a pencil eraser" and insert them back... Clean also the Processor heat sink if dusty... Then check the voltage of the CMOS (3V) battery it maybe dead, if so you need to replace that with the same type.
Keep me posted if still does not work...

Happy fixya...

Msi h61m p20

[img src="http://www.evga.com/support/faq/images/imgDivider.gif" width="80%" height="1"> Try manually clearing the CMOS on the boards. Refer to the board's documentation if you do not know how. This can be done by moving a jumper on the board, or if the board has an onboard CMOS clear button, depress the button a couple of times.
Also try the sticks of RAM one by one in all of the slots to see if any of them are able to boot. If they can boot, then make sure your RAM is set to the manufacturer's recommended defaults. Then try two at a time, and so on.
If you have an aftermarket heatsink, it may be too tight on the processor. Try either loosening the screws a bit, or try testing with the stock heatsink that came with your processor.
Please notice that if you have a P55, H55, X58, or the SR-2 you MUST populate the Primary memory channel first, which is the non-black memory channels.

Try a different monitor, just to remove that from the equation. If that doesn't work then try an add on graphics card. it will save your computer.
