No Display On Monitor Unless I Remove And Reinsert Same Ram Sticks

[DMZ]

So I got a PC tower cheap second hand. The guy selling it got a new one for his birthday so let his old one collect dust for awhile

But the pc tower needs ram taken out and reinserting everytime it boots up UNLESS the Ram is taken out and put back in otherwise I get No Display on my monitor

Any idea on what the problem could be? I was thinking bad Ram sticks but why would they work when taken out and reinserted? Maybe a faulty dying motherboard?

Or does the RAM and RAM slots need properly cleaning?

Worth barring in mind that once the RAM sticks are removed and reinserted the PC works like a charm.. no display issues and I was on it for 5-6 hours afterwards with no issues which makes it even more bizarre!

Thanks
