Only one RAM stick is functioning among four.
Only one RAM stick is functioning among four.
I have four RAM sticks, each 32GB. I removed two and gave them to my brother. When I checked again, only one was working. I brought all four back into the motherboard but still only one functioned. What went wrong? Please clarify your steps so I can assist better.
It worked, but it doesn’t make much sense. Did you break it? It’s going to be a real shame.
It seems uncertain if the issue occurred on both sides. I often experiment with builds and usually catch the problem quickly, like when I adjust the PSU switch or check the back of the power supply.
1.) When you took the sticks out of your system, did you remove them from the correct channels (for example, your board might have B1, A1, B2, A2 slots)? So that after removing two, they stayed in the preferred ones like A1 and A2 when using two of the four dimming slots.
2.) Have you tried running the CMOS for 30 seconds, resetting everything in the BIOS, and then double-checking the BIOS settings?
I don’t understand A1/B1 well, but putting the first RAM on the left and the second in the middle didn’t help. I brought everything back together and only one worked, which is confusing. I still hear clicks from each chip but haven’t cleared the CMOS yet.
