Pc will not boot, C1 error

[Sammy78]

Hi
I've got the abit IP35 pro, with 2 x crucial memory sticks. the pc will not turn the monitor/keyboard on, and doesnt get past C1, ive tried the sticks in different slots, tried rebooting with one only, and none makes a difference.
I've tried clearing the cmos out by taking the battery out for a few hours, and it made no difference either, currently got a pc that wont turn on at all.
I'm not too pc literate, so any instructions/help would need to be in simple speak!

It sounds like you may have some dodgy memory. Did the system work before is is this a new build?

I suggest borrowing or if you have some spare memory put it in and fire it up and see if comes up.
