Download and install Display Driver Uninstaller. Reboot computer into Safe Mode. Run DDU and uninstall video driver. Reboot back into Normal Mode. Install latest video card driver, and reboot computer if required. See how the game goes.

Check system files by running command prompt as administrator, and type within the command window sfc /scannow You could also check the operating system disk by typing within the command window chkdsk c: /r (where "c" is the operating system drive letter, it might be another letter other than...

Retail PSU testers do not test for all possible situations the PSU operates under, so it is not an entirely accurate indication of PSU status. It seems most likely that the SeaSonic PSU is faulty. Return it for replacement (or refund?).

As each individual memory module works, it is unlikely to be a memory module issue. Despite replacing the CPU (and presumably it is mounted evenly, and presumably there are no bent or damaged pins?), it seems the ongoing issue with unavailable memory slots (B channel) is now most likely due to...

Make sure all components are seated properly and evenly, this applies particularly to the CPU and the memory. Make sure all cables that need to be connected are connected properly. If still having issues, then try another known working PSU as a test. If necessary borrow a PSU from a friend or...

It is just a bit more involved than memory frequency regarding compatibility with systems. Hard to say whether these Hynix modules will work or not, but good chance that they will, especially if these memory modules are from the same dual channel kit. In the event these modules do not work...

First, clear/reset BIOS. Second, make sure all components seated properly. To be sure of that, remove and re-insert the memory and video card. Third, make sure all cable that need to be connected are connected properly. This includes the CPU auxiliary power supply, and the auxiliary power for...

750 Watts PSU is easily sufficient for your system. Reset/clear BIOS. Make sure all components are seated correctly. To be certain of that, remove and re-seat the video card, memory, and the sound card. Make sure all cables that need to be connected are connected properly also. A (retail)...

For the Biostar A10N-8800E motherboard, here are some compatible memory - Crucial memory.

That memory is a dual channel kit and is compatible with your setup. Recommend that the CPU and its socket be checked as soon as possible, so as to either eliminate this as the cause of the issue, or to confirm that this was the cause of the issue.

Remove the CPU and check it and its socket for any sign of bent or damaged pins. There should be no dust, dirt nor debris on or among the pins/pads. Remount CPU carefully and evenly. If still having memory issues, then - What is the Corsair Memory modules part number? Starts with "C".

OK. It seems that Task Manager is mis-reading the memory settings in BIOS. This is now likely due to (unintended?) limitations of Task Manager. Software such as CPU-Z, Speccy, HWinfo, Aida etc have been specially designed to read memory SPD and BIOS data correctly. Task Manager is not...

Installing individual memory modules not from the same dual channel kit is always a risk as to whether the two modules will work compatibly with each other. If you are lucky, the two individual modules might work together, but will be run at the lowest CAS latency, in this case CAS 18. If the...

This CPU does not have any integrated graphics.

If trying to run all memory at the same time (G.Skill 2 x 4 GB AND PNY 2 x 8 GB), then the issue is most likely to due inter-module incompatibility. Mixing memory brands/models is always risky. If trying to run the PNY 2 x 8 GB memory only, there might be system incompatibility issues. Update...
