Well if you've tried and gotten the same problem with 2 seperate sticks of the exact same brand/model ram... I'd say it's 1 of 2 things. 1) motherboard slot is bad. 2) that stick is not compatable in dual channel with that mobo.

I'd try to rule out #2 as much as possible. Then RMA the mobo.

I have an Abit VP6 dual P3 mobo... put in the 2 cpu's and 3 512mb sticks. Worked great for 5 days, I rebooted and it wouldn't boot back up.

Went round and round with abit for about an hour of trying diffrent cpu's and in diffrent slots. I RMA'd the board plus $20, 3 days later I had a brand new board. Still working fine, that was about 3 years ago.
