Initially, my computer was working fine and I had my memory set up as 1-0-1-0 512MB x 2 dual channeled. Then, I had to install a wireless PCI card, and for some reason when I turned the computer back on, there was no signal to the monitor. That being, the "ASUS" splash screen that I'm supposed to see on the monitor never shows and my computer is stuck on standby mode.

I thought it was strange, so I unplugged the PCI card... but no dice, still the same. After some troubleshooting, I found that my computer only turns on when the memory is set up as 1-0-0-0 or 0-1-0-0 with either pieces of ram... are my other two RAM slots fried?

Any suggestions on what I can do?
