PC just suddenly wont boot up. I tried troubleshooting and by removing 2 stick of ram worked.
It would be a waste if I cant use the other two.

You can check what partnr by getting cpu-z->spd tab and get that info here.Would like to know what voltage they work on right now. Maybe even other specs. Will you post a screen shot of the "System Summary" as told about in the next? Can you do for cpu-z also of course or just that,also for the "memory tab since that tells what settings the sticks currently run.

download hwinfo32,
install and open it=click run,
the top window which is the system summary,
make a screenshot and post the next way,

Can use Imgur to post a picture here,use the "img" link.
Click "new post" ->choose "upload images" -> "browse" ->choose the picture and click "open" ->put cursor on the picture that you uploaded->choose "share links" and copy...

Nope, it's two separate sets of 2x4gb. But i bought it together and it's been working for years until now.
Specs? 1866mhz, dunno what else to tell you. Sorry not really a techie :)

Does each set work on it's own? (Or even each stick) Could do the above for both sets then,yes it's abit of work changing sticks.
