Just want to verify that nothing else is wrong, so put the 1 good stick in slot 1.  You should be able to live with 4GB for a while.  16GB seems like a lot.

True, I was just unsure since I have tried running with 1 stick of ram before and issues would still arise...however it might not of been the good stick...I was just thinking to try running memtest overnight on 2 sticks then trying to use them and see if I got any BSOD's tomorrow?

That's a plan, too.  You just don't want to be sending good RAM back & have Corsair reject your claim.  If you send them the memtest results, there should be no issues.

How does one print out memtest results from DOS, i feel dumb for asking...
