^+2. Don't forget to put it in the same slot as well. Not the ones they were in when you were testing them at the same time. Posted via RS Mobile | |

Will have to try memtest on a basic rig I put together. Whenever I put 2 sticks of RAM on it, it will post but Windows will not boot up. When I put 1 stick (doesn't matter which one), Windows will boot up properly.
Tried all 4 RAM slots and the issue wasn't solved.

Ezekiel 25:17. The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of the darkness. For he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know I am the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon you. | |
