Hello everyone! I’m facing a minor issue after my recent upgrade from 1 x8Gb to 2x8Gb. Sometimes the PC won’t boot properly—no screen appears when I power it on. Whenever this happens, I press the reset button and it restarts immediately. I’m not sure what to do next. Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Yes, I checked both modes.

I understand, I’ll go ahead and test it now.

It's a bit unpredictable at the moment, but it seems to be working fine now. This setup uses XMP.

Did you purchase a 2x8GB package or simply added another single 1x8GB module? DDR4 demands careful selection; without a dual or quad kit, you risk compatibility issues even with matching specs, brand, model, and rates. Problems can arise such as blue screens, crashes, freezes, restarts, or boot failures. Use Memtest86 to verify memory fit, and it’s usually wiser to return the existing module and buy a kit that matches your exact requirements.

I didn't grasp how to operate that tool. I ran a program named RAMmon from PassMark. The output showed only a few discrepancies. The last two entries were for RAMMon version 1.1, build 1001, built with SysInfo v2.0, version 1002. It listed memory details and specifications.
