before you start reading my problem here is some notes:
Im using 2x2RAM cards
I am using Windows Ultimate edition 64bit.
My english is bad.

It started a week ago, my computer was still recongnizing both ram slots but there was another problem, when i opened dxdiag it was saying:

4 RAM Installed ( 2GB Usable)

1 day passed, and now i open dxdiag and it doesnt recognize one of my slots:

2 RAM Installed

seems that my right ram slot does not work. but my both of my ram cards seems fine and both works on the left side.. ive tried everything - Cleaning it very carefuly with K600 Tuner cleaner and more useless stuff that people suggested me on another forum.
i know that i need to buy a new mobo but before im going to, anyone got an idea how to solve it?
Im realy low on budget and id like to try and solve it rather just rushing to buy a new mobo.

It does appear that the RAM slot is bad, and in that case the remedy is to stop using that slot or to replace the motherboard. You can try a long shot and re-install the OS, but that will delete all the programs that you have, and it is not certain that it will cure the problem.
