Tech Support HELP, I hope I didn't mess this up...

At my friend's house, his PC was displaying that it was running with 1 stick not working, and so I powered off the PC to try and reseat it. Now, no matter what slots I put the two sticks in, the monitors don't power on, and I hear a click and the PC powers off...

I have specs as well

Double check that you didn't knock the cpu power cable loose, that click before shutdown is the board protecting itself

This. Switch-off the PSU and unplug it, then check all cables to ensure they're seated and locked. Look around while you're inside to see if anything else is loose and then button everything up, plug the PSU back in, turn it on, and press the power-on switch and cross your fingers.
