both orange slots at once? Or which one? I tried it in both orange slots and it still got stuck at 3 diag lights.
I left it running with one stick in the bottom slot, and I'm about to go back and check it, but still no video signal

try booting with just 1 stick in the orange slot , then after it recognizes it , reboot and itll be fine .. try booting with a 400 stick if you have one , then try the g-skills after you reboot

which orange slot? the one closest to the CPU or closest to the edge of the motherboard?
I'll try the one close to the edge, as I have been trying the slot closest to the CPU all this morning. I'll also put my 2x512mb of Corsairs in and try that (one stick at a time of course)

They were only 3 days old, and I cannot help but think that if they were properly stored they would have made it. I would recommend, in future, that you wrap them tightly in wax or parchment paper followed by a tight wrapping in aluminum foil. Leaving fatty foods in the fridge in just a paper bag is a recipe for disaster; as you have already cooked up and tasted.

nope, still gets stuck trying to detect memory (3 LEDs on)
I really wanted to get a computer running so I put the CPU and memory back in my MSI board, put in the video card, two monitors, 24pin, 4pin, HDDs, and some rear panel stuff. It gets stuck "detecting IDE drives"... finds proc, finds mem, finds graphics card, fails at drives -.- I'm going to try it without any drives and report back. edit: I am now running on OptyMSI prime

For anyone here in the state of New York, I urge you to take action. Unfortunately, the anti-video game bill (S 6401 A/A 11717) has passed both the House and Assembly and is now in hands of Governor Paterson. Please take action now and send a letter asking him to veto the anti-video game bill. New York gamers need to send a message: More video game education, not video game regulation!
This bill would waste NY residents hard earned tax dollars on investigating video games when the facts are already in. We have much higher priorities for our resources and dollars than this kind of crusade. I fear that if this bill passes, a tax on games is soon to follow, if not an outright ban.

nate, one DIMM has to be installed in the orange slot that is farther away from the CPU socket.
I can almost guarantee you that it will fire up after doing it this way.  Keep us updated!
