I just recently got an Aurora R10 and set it up yesterday. Today I started it up and it ran fine for about half an hour then it shut off. Now it will not turn back on and is showing 2 blinks of a yellow light, then a pause, then another 2 blinks. I looked it up online and it says that light code means there is no ram detected. I have opened it up and checked out the memory cards and they are installed correctly so I’m not sure what the issue is. Anyone have an idea?
So I got my R10 less than a week ago, and it’s blinking yellow, first it’s 2 flashes than 1, then repeating that sequence. I look through the manual and it says 2 blinks means it’s the RAM, and 1 is the CMOS/MB. I recently upgraded to the RAM when I got it to 32gb 3200, but I swapped it back and it’s still the same. Contacted support with no help but told me to power cycle it and ultimately returning it. Any ideas/suggestions before I return it? Took me like 2 months to get my order, and I don’t wanna wait another two months when I use it daily.
Hello
Computer is pretty new (around a month), all been going really well. However i decided to turn off my overclocking on the CPU (using the Alienware command center) as ive been reading its not worth doing (i have a 5800x). It asks me to restart my computer and now it will not boot up. The alineware head flashes twice and then once. I spoke to customer care and they are going to send someone but it wont be till next week, the flashing light combo means a CPU problem. I tried power cycling and trying to get into BIOS but neither thing works. Anyone have any ideas or do i just need to wait for the engineer to come and replace my CPU? The CPU was working really well before, i cant see how it would break by me just turning of the auto boost?
I am really just aggravated at how stupid I was to mess with anything.
I have had an R10 for almost a year now. 3800X with a 2080S. I bought the basic RAM. 1 TB m2 SSD. Liquid cooled. 1000w power supply.
I have been using ryzen master and ACC for overclocking but only a bit.
Last week I bought a RAM upgrade (I made sure to do a ton of research) ad successfully installed it. I changed the XMP profile in the BIOS. I ran benchmarks and used CPU-Z to confirm I had the memory running at 3200 as expected. Everything was working fine. No issues at all. Great outputs.
I had the bright idea this morning to look at utilizing the infinity fabric feature. I went in BIOS and changed the speed manually to 1600. Now the computer won't boot up. I just get the blinking yellow light twice and then once. I tried the following to reset the BIOS but not luck:
unplug the computer, remove all the ram from the system, with the computer unplugged, hold the power button for 30 seconds, then remove the CMOS battery for 10 seconds and put it back in. Leave the computer unplugged for 30 minutes. Then install original ram in the correct slots. Then plug in and power on.
I did get the computer to boot to BIOS after repeatedly restarting but then when I tried to change the memory OC to OC2 it shut down and I am back to square one.
I know manually changing the memory OC is what screwed me.
Any way I can get my machine back to running order? I have the premium support but I would rather avoid that route.
I have read a lot here about this error but most seems to be geared toward someone who can actually get in BIOS. I can't at this point as it won't start up.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
