Got my system all booted up today with some guidance of the fellow forum members.

 

shut down, and installed the 3 other ddr4 DIMMs in the appropriate slots.

 

 

same symptoms as previously posted (after installing windows and everything)

boots fine with one DIMM.

Faulty DIMM(s)?  (Take this with a grain of salt - you'll probably get better answers from people who know more about this than me.)

Hmm, either some ram slots are dead on the MOBO, or some ram stick is dead.

 

Try all of your ram sticks in that one slot. If they all work, your ram is good -> faulty MOBO?
