    Having removed half the RAM, it now runs MemTest86 with no errors through multiple passes, and Windows 11 installed without a glitch. Well, almost. At the point where Setup wants to check for updates, it doesn't recognize the built in WiFi adapter on this MB. So I spent an hour or so rummaging around storage to find a 100' Cat5 cable to reach the router. Once Setup was done, an ASUS program kicked in and downloaded drivers for the MB. After that, the WiFi adapter was recognized and usable. So, all is good for now, and the excess RAM will be set aside.

    Interesting. Have you retried MemTest86 with *only* the suspect stick? Odds are, it'll confirm there's something wrong with it. Or maybe it's not identical to your other one(s), and they have problems running in sync. Either way - good news. At least you found the culprit.

      Interesting you should mention that. As part of the process, I tried booting with just one stick installed, despite the fact that I've always been told by the manual to install them in pairs. This manual showed installing one as an available option, so I went for it. The PC went nuts! Start, stop, LEDs go on then off... then on again. Crazy stuff, so I figured the manual was wrong, and traditional instructions to install them in pairs must be correct. But if that's no longer a requirement, I must have plugged in the one bad stick first! Oh well, I'll save them both of that set for the next build.
