Hello Im in need of some help I have a
ASUS Maximus VI Formula
16GB Corsair Vengeance 4x4GB DDR3 2133mhz
Intel i7-4790k CPU

When i try to put all 4 Ram sticks in i get an error code 55 and no boot into bios nothing :(, so i than tried 1 at a time and when i put one in closest to the cpu it works but thats it ive tried putting the other ram in and it doesnt work. In fact thats the only slot that will boot anything please help.
 
Solution
If you tested every RAM stick and it works on that one specific RAM slot and not the others, then there's a chance the other RAM slots are no longer working. Try updating your BIOS.

Test your RAM sticks on that one slot.... You might have a defective RAM stick.

Then again it seems to be a common problem with the motherboard...

I seen it but all of the ram work in the one slot im talking about all the ram sticks work
 
make sure the mb has the newest bios to rule out a code bug. on my asus mb sabertooth i bent i pin under the cpu and lost one of the ram slots when i first built this pc a few years ago. check to see if there bent pins under the cpu. if not the cpu memory controller may be bad.
