Maybe the motherboard doesn't support any more than 16GB. Or maybe it requires a firmware update to support 32GB.
Or maybe the sticks are firmly inserted in their slots. So the SMBus works to detect the sticks, but the address bus doesn't work.
I did a Google search for you. Seems to be a fairly common problem with this motherboard.

Although there wasn't a great solution in the above posts, the internet was leaning towards it being a hardware failure.

You are using the Memtest86+ V5 software, which is both old and not our software. So we can't help you with it.Leave a comment:

Difference in memory size
Hello,
My system always had 32G memory installed and available - 4x8G modules. Modules are still installed, however now only half of memory detected as 'available pool'.
Please see the attached photo - memtest detects that 4 slots have 8192MB modules installed, with total memory size 16G.
Can somebody please explain why there is a 16G difference between installed and available memory?1 PhotoTags: None
