RAM Problems

[Russboy360]

I was using my computer the other day and it bluescreened and this was what it said.

 

 

It wouldn't start up, so I reseated the RAM, and it went back to normal.

 

Today, again using the computer, then it stopped the screens froze and a loud buzzing noise was emitted from the speakers.

I turned down the sound and left it for two minutes to see if it would sort itself out, it didn't. Cut the power and rebooted, nothing, just like before.

So I tried reseating the RAM, nothing, for some reason only the right RAM socket works, but both sticks of RAM work in it.

 

Any ideas how to get it working, otherwise i only have 4GB of RAM :-(

Tried reseating the GPU and RAM, no luck

It is still in warranty, would that work?

Would reseating the CPU help?

Would reseating the CPU help?

Maybe. Check if all pins on mobo/cpu are ok

Reseated CPU, found the problem a few of the pins were bent and had a very small amount of thermal compound on them.

Cleaned it all up sorted the pins and now I have all of the RAM backs

 

Thanks for everyone's help

Thermal compound on pins? So heat transfers from cpu to mobo more efficiently How it got there

When I put on my new cooler, I tried to clean the old paste off and ended up putting some on the side of the CPU, so I took out the CPU and it must have fallen then and I just didn't notice it
