The pertinent specs:    If unable to view please let me know and I'll paste in the data.
 
Looking for some suggested changes I can make to the BIOS so that Windows will recognize all 16GB of RAM.  I'm not very familiar with memory voltages and could use some guidance.  Thanks!
 
Edit: current settings are 1.5v running at 1600Mhz.

    what memory are you running? you may want to check the timings, etc on the modules.

    The only thing I can think is to test the memory individually, one stick at a time. Also, I know that you should put the sticks in particular slots depending on how many are being used, but will it post if you try and put 1 stick in slot 1, turn it off, move the 1 stick to slot 2, etc.

    Are you using XML settings or did you set the memory yourself. I suggest settings the memory timings and DIMM voltage manually if you haven't already done so.
