Hello there,

First of all, the specs:

- Windows 10 famillies 64bits
- Mother board Asus P7P55D 16 Go with updated BIOs (non-reversable to older ones, i tried)
- Intel Core i5 650 3.20GHz
- Actuel ram 2x2Go Corsair xms3
- Nvidia GTX970 8Go ram Strix

I just bought some brand new out of the box

4x4GB 16GB 1600MHz DDR3 quad channel
Corsair Vengeance RAM

Sadly my pc dosen't pass the windows10 loading screen with only 1 stick pluged in the slot A1 after the bio set up to XMP and evrything done.

Do you have an I dea of what I missed to make all 4 sticks work on my rig?

Yeah, that CPU has a max # of memory channels at 2 - it can't handle channels. It also can't handle those RAM speeds.

From the Intel Page (https://goo.gl/WRDgVn):
Memory Specifications
Max Memory Size (dependent on memory type)
16.38 GB

Memory Types
DDR3 1066/1333

Max # of Memory Channels
2

To check the list of ASUS motherboards which supports Windows 10,
please refer to this link:
https://www.asus.com/microsite/mb/Windows_10/

If the model name of your motherboard is not included in the list, or Windows 10 driver for your motherboard is not provided on ASUS support site, it means your motherboard might not be able to support Windows 10.

Thank you for the intels, I'll exchange my rams for a set of 2x8Gbs then in 1333 Mhz ddr3 :)

My motherboard handles windows 10 fine too, evenif it's not on their listing.

I'll upgrade cpu and motheboard later though.

Sorry that is 100% not accurate. Look up your processor it will say the same thing.
Max memory channels 2

Did you already have windows 10 installed and running fine before the new memory?
If yes then reset CMOS add 2 sticks of memory and see what happens. Dont do nothing else just turn the PC on.

I did the cmos/ MemOk with 2 of the new sticks in their slots the first time, it didn't worked, it didn't passed the w10 loading screen.
