Default magnum r/t won't start - told computer reset itself

2006 100% original 33K magnum r/t won't start - cranks well but won't catch. trickle charged battery but same spinning. heard a pop from the speakers and sounds from the dash after key shutoff. towed in and next day it started. dealer said the computer had crashed and they 'think' it reset itself overnight. will try again tomorrow. car had sat 3 days prior to this occurance. all ideas appreciated. battery original and is my only guess THANK YOU

Default 1/2 charged battery the claim for computer crash

station took car after I trickle charged it to 100% - they couldn't duplicate the problem but said codes told them them computer had crashed from a weak battery at 15 degrees outside. So off to buy a new battery = Walmart Evermaxx I think has proper vents.
