It's probably set to dual channel in the BIOS, and since your RAM chips aren't of equal size, it can only use one of them. It's possible you can disable some settings to get it to use both slots. |

April Ryan is my friend,
Every sorrow she can mend.
When i visit her dark realm,
Does it simply overwhelm.
Every RAM has a particular frequency at which it works so most probably your both RAM must be of a different frequency which would be causing a problem. You require to have the settings done from the BIOS, but then too in some cases it won't work properly. Just give it a try and see if the setting the BIOS works in your case. |

"MementoMori, the lucid machine"
"There's nothing better than knowing what it's like to fly like superman. Being fully aware of the air whipping by you, controlling every movement of every single atom in your body with a single thought. It's real freedom, and there's not a word good enough to describe it, so I'll just call it dreamy for now."
