RAM slot
I have burnt one metalic tooth of my RAM slot (it burnt and fell off), and now even if I leave it empty and put a healthy stick into another slot, I cannot post because my mobo beeps every 3 seconds, as if something is not properly plugged (min configuration, cleared CMOS, CPU fan is spinning) . Am I correct in the diagnosis of the problem and what could be the solution. My mobo is L7VMM by ECS if that matters. Reiterating, would mobo produce beeps if a malfunctionous ram slot is left empty. (Also, the red indicator on the mobo is on and I cannot find what it is for)
