It would be best to put a small piece of masking tape on each stick to label them as 1 through 4 or A through D.

Now, using only memory slots #1 and #2, test the sticks in pairs. 1+2, 3+4, 1+3, 2+4, 1+4 and 2+3.
Actually, do a binary test. Theoretically one pair should work OK. So test 1+2, then 3+4. record if either pair works OK. If either pair fails, you now swap in one from the other pair to determine which one is at fault. So three tests total rather than doing all 6 combinations.
