It seems the RAM isn't physically broken but might be misaligned or improperly seated. The BIOS recognizes it, yet it fails to boot properly, possibly due to incorrect placement or a faulty connection.

Likely, though it functions in slot 1, just place it there. DDR3 seems necessary—upgrade might be required.

I hope you're ready to get rid of it! All your daily drivers are DDR4, that's great.

It seems you're curious about the hardware details of an older computer. Could you provide more information or clarify what you're looking for?
