    ram slot apparently not working help

    Hey, today i just bought two ddr3 4gb rams, as i have two slots. I happily put them in, and when i installed windows (x64) it says that 8gb ram (4gb usable) I tried to swap them, booting with only one slot, and it doesnt boot with ram put in only one of the slots, but it detects. I tried cleaning the slot, reseting bios, but i dont seem to find a solution, i wasted money on this lol. can you guys help? Can i save the slot?

    Hello

    If the slot is bad probably not.. Are you sure the ram is a perfect match? Please give us your complete pc spec’s…

      Hi,

      What does the memory show in the BIOS as? Does the BIOS show 8 GB’s total with 2 4 GB sticks?
