Hy, i have a pc buid with AsRock Z77 Pro3, 2x Kingston HyperX 8 GB DDR3 1600 Mhz, i7 3770 and GTX 950. It ran perfectly until today. When i opened my PC i heared 4 bips and then restarting. I have checked all cables, took out the bios battery and reseted the bios, took out the video card, then last i took out memory. When i put only 1 it starts, but when i put both of them i keep hearing same 4 bips and restarting. Regardles the memory i use, the PC starts with just one. But now with two. What culd have happened? I have warancy on my motherboard and memory, what shuld i send back for warancy?

Yeah normally I'd say check your PSU voltage output, but the fact that it boots fine with one stick leads one to point to a failing component on the motherboard (like the memory controller).
Run MEMTEST on each memory module separately. If one is bad, it will show up. If both do not show errors, then it's likely your motherboard's memory controller going bad. I don't think it's your power supply as you stated the boots and runs fine with one memory module.

Download MEMTEST here.

^You must copy the Zip file to either a blank CD or blank USB drive. It is not a Windows utility and requires one of the other to boot from to run the test on.

I have tested them, no errors. I have ram on work so i switched my 1600 with 1866 from work. Now it does work but windows crashed one time and fifa 17 crashed as well after i reboted my pc. I think i shuld go with motherboard at warancy.
