Try resetting the CMOS, insert the new stick in slot 1 and see if it boots OK, if it does then add the old stick, if OKay then you are good, if no joy the the two sticks don't want to play and you may be out of luck, give it a try and let me know

yay it works thank you, the problem it runs perfectly and then the monitor will have no display even though i reconnect it, the led will power off, but the fun is still running
