I didn't mention, and I probably should have, that I first tried this with an ECS Kn1 Extreme motherboard (also uses the nforce4 chipset) and had even more problems with 4 GB, although again 2 GB was fine. thinking it wasa a motherboard problem I then got the Epox 9NPA, which had very good reviews.
While it may have good reviews, there's always the chance of a bad one getting through. Can you take the computer back to where you bought it, to show them the problem?

Even memtest sometimes fail detecting Tried using the 2's independent? Install om A and swap it for B and reinstall? (Didn't really understand if you had...) Are they the same types? Or is it mixed manufacturers/models? Some MB's are very particular on the flavor of the sticks If both install perfectly, it MIGHT be the motherboard itself. I have had a few of those problems in the shop from time to time. Boards that barf on certain combo's of mem sticks (RTFM) And some boards that are just plain broken.
