I used to overclock my ram to 2400mhz by using xmp profile 1 in memory setting. My both rams using ram slot 4_1 and 4_2. Today i changed the ram slot to check whether my other 2 ram slots working or not. After powering up my rig, the following boot failure error showing up.

Then i again put ram to slot 4_2 but same failure occurs again. I reset the bios but same issue repeating. It was working perfectly till today with xmp profile 1 but changing the ram slot now causing the issue.

Please experts help to solve it.

Since you're able to get into BIOS, check and see which version you're currently on. If there are any updates pending, make sure to work through them gradually. I'd also advise on making sure your Management Engine Firmware's are also updated(if required by the BIOS).

That being said, how old is the PSU and have you tried removing the CMOS battery from the motherboard while the system is powered down and disconnected from the wall?

I'm a little confused, you have one ram to work with or two sticks of ram...?
