Ok, to specify, I can barely boot with 2 sticks.
But here it goes.
I used to have 16GB of RAM (2x8GB) but one stick died.
I have now gotten a hold of a new kit that is 4x4GB.
I can only boot two sticks in A2 and B2 after I first boot with one stick in A2 then add the second stick.
I cannot boot with 3 or 4 sticks.
Q&A
Q: Have you tried each stick separately to see if they all work?
A: yes, and they do.
Q: have you done a CMOS reset?
A: yes, did that before swapping out for the new kit.
Q: have you tried each slot with a single stick and tried A1+B1 or any other combo with a second stick to see if any of the slots are bad?
A: yes, yes, and yes, but unfortunatelythe system won't have it if I try to use any other slot that A2 with a single stick or any other combo besides A2+B2 after first doing the trick mentioned above so I can't properly determine if there's a bad slot.
So any help at this point is greatly appreciated. Thank you.
