Hello,
I have four memory slots on my motherboard. I have just now upgraded from 2x512MB to 2x1GB plus 2X512MB A0 and A1 slots have been loaded with new IGB RAM each. A2 and A3 slots have been loaded with the previous two 512MB RAMs.Now when I boot up, slot A2 shows as empty and the total RAM records as approx 2.5 GB whereas there is 3.0 GB of RAM installed. I tried exchanging the memory DIMMs from A2 to A3 and vice versa, but still A2 slot shows as empty. Does this mean that this slot is damaged? All the memory modules are okay. Is there a simple way of repairing the A2 slot if damaged?
