Few weeks ago my screen suddenly went black saying i had no video being sent to the monitor, tried re plugging the hdmi and it stayed in the same state, when I restarted my pc it wasnt booting up, all the components started working, fans started working, but it wouldnt boot windows, it would stay in a black screen state forever.

I removed and put the ram sticks several times, after 20 minutes of taking out and puting back in the ram sticks it started booting up again, later that day i realized only 4gb of ram were being recognized, it was using 1 stick only.

I was always placing the sticks in the 2nd and 4th ram slot, I went back to removing and replacing the ram sticks until it eventually started working again with the 8gb being recognized.

Today I was adding another internal disk into my pc and after plugging the disk it happened again, pc wont boot up with sticks on 2nd and 4th slot, tried it for a long time, it only boots up when I have the stick on the 1st slot, tried both sticks on the 1st slot and they are both working but when i try any other slot it doesnt boot.

 

Motherboard: EX-A320M-GAMING

Ram: Crucial Ballistix Sport LT 2666 MHz  8GB (4GBx2)

Ram serial: BLS2K4G4D26BFSE
