Hey there,
I have this machine (ASUS BM6835 Board) which came with a pre-installed 8GB RAM. Now I wanted to upgrade another 8GB but the new RAM element is not working.
http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/Desktop/BM6835/BM6835_Datasheet_E.pdf
I tried several combinations:
- Old 8GB in Slot A1 - working (recognizes 8GB)
- Only New 8GB in Slot A1 - not even booting
- Old 8GB in Slot A1, New 8GB in Slot A2 - not even booting
- Old 8GB in Slot A1, New 8GB in Slot B1 or B2 - working (but only recognizes 8GB, probably my old one)
On the attached image you can find both RAM elements (Old8GB = working is on top)

I am confused, is the new one broken or is it a wrong type of RAM or is there any configuration on the board I am missing... Please help, thanks!
