I put my parts together, try to boot up and it won't get past the ugly Gigabyte splash screen. Won't go into bios. Just hangs there.
I remove 1 stick of ram and off we go! No worries. I swap sticks, again, no worries. So both sticks are fine by themselves, it's just when I try putting both in that the comp won't even get past the 1st splash screen and not even let me into the bios.
Any hints would be GREATLY appreciated
