I have a (newish) Toshiba Satellite laptop (E45-B4100) that had 4GB of memory in Slot A and 2GB in Slot B.
Slot A: 4GB of memory
Slot B: 2GB
I purchased Kingston Technology 8GB 1600MHz DDR3L from Amazon and replaced as follows:
Slot A: 8GB of memory (Kingston)
Slot B: 4GB (taken from Slot A)
Now the laptop will recognize only 8GB of memory at start-up...or 4GB of memory at other start-ups. But it will never recognize both at the same time (with 12GB).
I tried blowing (canned) air around the slots, but that didn't work.
Not sure if relevant, but ever since I inserted the new memory, my laptop will occasionally shut down over night even if the laptop is closed...I guess it's still running in the background.
Appreciate any help...thanks!
