Recently, I decided that I was going to maximize the RAM on my machine and purchased 4x4GB RAM modules. When I initially installed all four new cards, the machine did not turn on and instead there was just the slow steady tone indicating RAM failure. I did some research and tested the cards one by one, it didn't turn out to be any of the cards that was defective but one of the slots on my Mac. Is there a solution for this? Or is it best to simply leave the three functioning slots alone and suffer through only having 12GB of memory (haha).
