Acer Aspire V3-772 RAM issues

Servcsi

I have recently re-installed my windows and decided to clean the fan and change the thermopaste, i am doing this routine every year for my Acer V3-772G, however after reassembling it together half of the RAM is not working, and if install in the slot, the laptop won't even start. Please see the picture to see the side that is empty. I have swapped the RAM and all  pieces are working if i place them in the side that is currently working. So is anyone having or had the same issue and what can be done.
I cleaned the laptop gently, and i have re-checked but i can't see any physical missing components that might be knocked off( well they might be  ), but without a microscope or magnifying glass nothing criminal can be found.

Any suggestion would be very much appreciated.

Hi,
Go to BIOS screen and move to Main tab, then press F9 button to set the BIOS to default settings and see whether it helps, clean the pins of the modules carefully(without rubbing), use an air duster to clean the memory slots to remove any dust and try again.
