    Memory usable Vs Unused Dell Win 7 64 bit


    Hey,
    I'm sorry to post again about this problem but it drives me mad!
    I just can't get my memory to work.
    Got 8 x 2GB sticks and when all installed the Buzz of death goes off and that's it.
    If only installed in slots 1 and 2 everything's OK.
    If in 1, 2, 3 and 4 ... Buzz of death.
    If in 1 and 2 and 7 and 8 as in image below, 8GB installed 4 GB Usable
    Please can you help?

    Hey AddRAM,
    thank you for the welcome message and your reply.
    The PC is a Dell Precision T5400 with 2 quad processors @3Ghz
    Now I've tried again for a few hours and all 16 GB of RAM is showing as installed
    but only 8 usable. Also tried all the msconfig.exe possible combinations but no change.
    I'm attaching a couple of snips for you to look at.
    Best Regards
    Julie
