4 Slots Of Ram In Laptop

/ Comments off
  1. So my Laptop is a Lenovo Ideapad 300-15ISK, i got it back 2016, on task manager it says it is got 4 ram slots but when i open the panel on the back i visibly only see 2 ram slots, no they don't stack and would they be deeper on motherboard or under more panels? And second question i am not sure if this is the right laptop i bought when i lok up.
  2. And I got RAM question, shall I put the memory sticks in SLOT 1/3 or stay with my current setup 2/4?

  3. As you can see, this computer has a total of four memory slots, although only two are currently being utilized. Use the CPU-Z utility. Another way to get information about memory slots and details about the RAM currently installed on your computer, is to use the free CPU-Z third-party utility. Open an Internet browser and visit the CPUID website.

This is sort of a reassurance question since I'm just about to upgrade my RAM. Right now I have both sticks next to each other instead of in a 1-3 or 2-4 configuration. Every time I boot my PC, a reminder pops up saying to put them in 1-3 or 2-4 for optimal performance but when I do that and turn on the PC, all the hardware switches on but the boot up won't initiate which I assume is the BIOS not starting. Do you know if its faulty RAM sticks or something else like a motherboard problem?
RAM - Corsair 2400mhz, DDR4, 8GB (both)
