We got it!! Thank you so much for this tip. Turns out one stick of RAM on my inspiron had a little corrosion on the connection port along with some gunk on the mother board so I used a drop of WD 40 on a small acid brush. Cleaned up everything, swapped out the sticks like you said, all checked out good.

[ShawnaSmithabundance]

Thank you so much! This helped me figure out that one of my cards was bad and to test the ports to make sure they were both working!
