Computer wouldn't even turn on earlier... got no beeps and no POST/BIOS screens. Removed the #2 stick... got the beeps but nothing on screen.
After tinkering around and moving memory (testing one stick at a time... one slot at a time), I've managed to turn on the computer with only one stick in the #2 slot. Is it possible that I have a memory problem that's not being picked up by Memtest86+? G.Skill has a lifetime warranty on their memory, so I might try just getting these replaced.
But I don't know if the sticks are the problem, or if it's the ports on the board. One thing for sure, moving memory around or removing a stick definitely makes a difference when it won't boot up (long beeps, see previous post).
