I have a dual channel motherboard for my ram.I had two 4GB ram sticks attached to it.
Recently one of them have stopped functioning.I have troubleshooted the problem by individually checking the ram sticks. Both work fine when I insert them in channel B, but the the problem starts when my computer wont boot with channel A.
I want to know whether my ram slot is actually dead or is it just dust settling on the ram slot which is interfering with it as I seem to have a lot of dust stored in my case. Can anyone suggest a software which can tell me whether my ram slot is dead or not??. I have already tried speccy and it tells me I have a 1 free memory slot and 1 used slot.
Does it falsely report dead slot as a free memory slot.
Any thoughts, anyone??
