Hello, I decided to upgrade my RAM from 1x4GB to 2x4GB. I made sure every details of the sticks are similar. But it seems that the first slot is the only one working. Both RAM sticks work but every time I put one in the second slot, the PC just gives a long beep and doesn't boot. Any ideas? I'm using the new one atm.

PC Specs:
Acer Veriton X2630G
Intel Core i5-4440
Intel HD Graphics 4600
BIOS: P11-B0

RAM Specs (Similar)
Kingston DDR3 PC3-12800 1600MHz
 
Solution
(Found the answer) Both of them work when put in the first slot alone, but if I put one on the second slot alone, it breaks both slots and gives a long beep without booting. Solution I found: Clear CMOS.
