So, I’ve got this motherboard with two memory slots—up until now, I’ve only ever been using one of them. I decided to pick up some extra RAM to beef things up, so I popped the second stick into the other slot, but... nothing. Absolutely zero response. At first, I was convinced I’d just bought a dud or incompatible sticks, but that doesn't seem to be the case. See, when I use the first slot, both sticks work perfectly fine—no issues there—but the moment I try to utilize that second slot, neither of them will register. It's like that part of the board is just dead to the world. Does anyone have any idea what might be causing this?

Well, if everything is exactly how you say it is, then you pretty much found your own answer: the slot is broken.
