This sounds like my level of luck. I only get a couple of hours a week at most to do what I want and nine times out of ten it gets interrupted by something breaking. I actually ran into a very similar issue last weekend when I repurposed an old build to monitor some cameras I installed. I had just reinstalled the OS, installed Shinobi and was getting everything configured when it crashed and would not boot back up. When trying to boot I saw the mem light turn on. Luckily in my case, it was resolved after I reseated each stick. But it was still a huge pain in the ass because the CPU heat sink blocks some of the DIM slots. Hopefully, it is not anything major and you can get back up and running.
Well, I tested both modules, and one of them turned out to be faulty. The other stick works, I can use my PC with it for now. And Corsair's customer support turns out to be really handy; they can send a replacement first for a deposit, and after I receive it, I can send the faulty one back. And once they receive it, I can get the deposit back.
So it's all (kinda) good now, regarding my PC.
