Hi, I attempted to relocate my stock single-channel RAM to another port on my laptop's motherboard. The issue persists whether I'm using dual channels or just one channel. When I moved the RAM to Slot #2, it wouldn't power on, and the same happened after installing two RAM sticks. However, when I placed it in Slot #1, it functioned correctly. It seems there might be a problem with the RAM slot itself rather than a memory error.

Both cards in slot 1 function correctly, so it's slot 2 that is faulty.
