Hey there folks,
I recently sent back a ram stick (PC in sig) because I would be getting all kinds of weird freezes etc and I just assumed it was that second stick as PC would boot and act just fine without it in there.
Today I finally had to check my suspicion...and I think it might be the board that's at fault, unless I'm terribly stupid right now.
If the ram is in the first slot (A1) I can boot without problems and I also pass Memtest86 without any problems.
Right now I only have 1 module and I was about to order another(They actually refunded the ram even though they said they found nothing wrong with it)...so I figured I might try putting my current stick that is working fine in slot B1 -> ITX board, only got 2 slots.
The PC won't even make any noise, monitor won't turn on...aka, it doesn't boot. The fans spin, but that's it.
A PC would usually at least boot even if A1 was not populated by a ram, right? (Of course with a module in B1)
I'm not just being derpy here and it seems like I have to send back that board....right? (Aish, can't wait to be without that cube for like 6 weeks straight...Asrock aren't the fastest)
