We need more information. What is your motherboard make and model.
You are using ecc and non ecc ram.
SOME motherboards will mix BUT most will not.
and your ram chips are totally out with each other beside ecc. example 1333 and 1600Mhz 64 bit and 72 bit.
You should always try and run ram in pairs. You can buy single sticks at different times and they will work.
But it is always best to try and buy in pairs ( I know this is not always something that can happen due to money restraints)
