Hey, I just put together a new computer and I bought 2 4GB ram sticks, total of 8GB. I put both ram sticks in slot 1 and 2 and installed windows. once windows was installed the computer kept on crashing over and over almost immediately (Can't browse web etc) So I took a stick of ram out (From slot 2) and tried again, windows worked flawlessly. So I took the stick that was in there (Working) and I put it into slot 2, the PC would not boot, just a continuous beep, So I tried the other ram in slot 2, same thing. So obviously, slot 2 does not work. So I tried slot 3, it works, but 4 doesn't, just a long beep like slot 2. I tried both sticks of ram, same result.
Am I doing some thing wrong? Or is my motherboard bad? Here's my specs.
