Okay so about 2 weeks ago I determined that one of my four memory sticks had gone bad. I RMA'd the memory, which I just got back today. Now heres the thing I'm still having problems.
I've tried every combination with the memory, and all the sticks are working perfectly by themselves, however, when I put the final stick in slot 4 (see picture) my system goes bananas.
with 2/4 sticks inserted I have a reported 4gb of memory
with 3/4 sticks inserted I have a reported 6gb of memory
with 4/4 sticks inserted I have a reported 4gb of memory
and what is even more peculiar is that if I have 3/4 memory sticks inserted, with the 3rd one being in the 4th slot I get a reported memory of 2gb.
There are some screenshots and images I have that might aid you guys with this detective work. I really am hoping this isn't a problem with my mobo, but who knows.
^This is with 3/4 sticks in, using the 4th slot.^
^This is with 3/4 sticks in, NOT using the 4th slot.^
^Fourth slot on the far left, next to heatsink.^
