Hello ,
It seems that a lot of people facing issues with their computers found a solution here so i wanted to give it a try.
Computer specifications
Motherboard : MSI z390-a PRO
CPU: Intel Core i9-9900K 3.6 GHz 8-Core Processor
RAM: 4 - Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3000 CL16 Memory (2 sets)
GPU: Gigabyte GeForce RTX 2080 8 GB GAMING OC Video Card
Power Supply: Thermaltake Toughpower GF1 PE 850 W 80+ Gold Certified Fully Modular ATX Power Supply

When i install 4 ram modules on my computer and when i turn it on the debug led lights (CPU and DRAM) switching on and and off one by one continuously and the computer is not booting. The computer only boots when i install 2 ram modules on the slots A1 and B1.
I have 4 ram modules bought in 2 sets (lets name them set A and set B). The set A works only on the slots A1 and B1 as i mentioned before and the set B is not working at all. This problem appeared after about 2 years since i built my computer.
I already updated my bios, first in the second latest and then on the latest (beta version) versions i found on the MSI site and that didn't fix the problem. I also reset the BIOS, by removing the power cable and the motherboard battery for about 20 minutes while i pressed the power button for around 30 seconds, with the same results.
I have also updated windows to windows 11 pro.
Finally i read online that people with a similar problem on a different motherboard had a CPU issue but i dont have any thermal paste so i am gonna check on my CPU tomorrow after i buy one.
Please forgive my bad English, since it isn't my native language i am not using it daily and it is a little bit rusty. I hope i explained my problem comprehensively.
Thanks in advance.
PS: Forgot to mentions that all 4 RAM modules have been tested on another PC and there are working smoothly.
