Default motherboard memory issue

Hello OCN

I'm having a BIG problem with my computer. Everytime I put my 4gb of memory it wont even boot into bios.

Here is the memory I have

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...-098-_-Product

if you look on newegg one guy post saying this memory wont boot into bios in dual channel on some motherboards. He says that the voltage must be set to 1.9 voltage, my voltage is set to 1.9, but it still wont work.

Im running out of ideas and this really is really stressing me out. if u have any ideas i'm all open to new ideas.

note: all my memory was tested on another PC and worked fine.

thanks OCN like always.

Did you try in single channel? Just want to see if both will work in your board. Some boards just don't like certain RAM. I have no idea why. I have some crucial RAM that just won't work in my Maximus Formula. The RAM works fine in my other computer though.
Did you clear CMOS when you put it in? No idea if it will matter or not, but might as well try everything.

Try bumping the north bridge voltage up 1 notch to see if that's the issue. You usually don't have to do this unless you are running a very high fsb or using more than 4GB of RAM (filling more than 2 slots) but maybe that's your issue.

Did you also try booting with each stick individually? Maybe you have a bad stick....or a bad DIMM

Edit: Just noticed you are above 4 Ghz...what fsb are you running? I think the NB could use a bit more juice.
