I was noticing some weird glitches with my old motherboard and CPU, so I decided "what the heck" and upgraded them both. The problem is, now only half my RAM is working. I've done everything I can think of to remedy the issue: switched the sticks around, tried the 2 slots instead of the 1 slots, updated the BIOS, reseated the CPU after air dusting the socket. I even returned the motherboard and got a new one sent to me, but the same thing happened when I got everything up and running again, with the exact same slots being the only ones working. I am officially stumped. Anyone have any ideas what's going on?
