this last post left unanswered --- please reply:

 

I have 8 RAM slots and 8 RAM chips

IN my CASE TWO CHIPS ARE ERRONEOUS --- 

faulty 2 chips or slots are the: 2, 4 --- i cleaned slots and chips and re-inserted but the problem persist

 

Remove completely chips in slots 2 and 4 ... or...?

sometimes shows during boot 

211 - Memory Warning Condition Detected Slot 2

but sometimes

203 Memory module failed self-test and failing rank was disabled Slot 4

 

If chips problematic must be removed from PC??   

// In BIOS see the post ^^^^ shows 8 x 4GB --- Ram but in windows 32GB -- Usable 24GB

 

in other words, according to:
