as the title mentions my pc boots up into safe mode after changing my 2x 16GB 5200mhz ddr5 slots from A1 and B1 to A2 and B2 and now i keep on getting safe mode even after changing back to the previous ram slots.

I tried a CMOS reset with no success

More insight to my issue:

I was having an issue with a game i play so i did a fresh install of windows 11, that didnt fix the issue so i thought ok my pc might now br running in dual memory mode so ill change the slots and see what happens, now i cant boot up into windows, Same ram sticks as ever no upgrade


can anyone help please?

Where did you source the installer for the OS?

How did you perform this? You're advised to disconnect from the wall and display, remove the CMOS battery and then press and hold down the power button for 30 seconds to drain all residual power. Replace the battery after 30 mins then try booting up with the rams in slots A2 and B2, assuming those are the slots mentioned in the motherboard manual.
