I installed the second memory bar, the same as the first one, but the memory does not work in dual channel mode. Bios and Windows define all memory. What could be the problem? where to look?

Piriform Speccy will help to ID the memory.

Hi
What did Speccy report?
""Bios and Windows define all memory. ""
So what memory is reported in the BIOS? What memory is reported in Windows?

I dont see a problem.
You have 16 in total, maybe 1 is for video like mine, and 15 remaining.
Used 5. 6 and 9.4 remain.
