RIVE not recognizing all the memory installed

[tengen]

It seems that the OS and BIOS summary does not recognize 16gb of the 32gb memory installed. I have all 8 slots populated by 4gb Samsung ram; only the red slots are recognized, and the black ones do nothing. However, prodding deeper into the BIOS and through CPU-Z, the additional ram is seen, but not recognized or utilized. Since the RIVE requires ram to be installed in certain slots, I'm unable to determine if it's a particular black slot that's causing trouble. All 8 sticks of ram have been from other systems and are confirmed 100% stable.

This is an entirely default / stock configuration with the Samsung ram running at default settings. BIOS has been updated to the latest.

Here are the screenshots: help would be appreciated.







CPU-Z and GPU/DIMM Post under BIOS sees all the sticks, but the OS / BIOS overview does not.

Things I have done:

- Reseated all the ram
- All the ram have been seated in different slots in different configurations (respective of their pairs)
- Reseated the CPU
- Reinstalled OS and it is not Home Premium
- Updated / reflashed BIOS

Any suggestions?
