It could possibly be a bent socket pin.

luckyluke I tryed the msconfig>boot and the Maximum Memory is setting automatically to 2048 ... Does it continue this behavior when you uncheck boot > Maximum Memory?

Try updating to the 70 BETA release of the BIOS, just update using the flash drive method, this may fix your issue as you was able to address all your memory with your old BIOS I assume.

The order the memory goes in are slots 2, 4, 6 - in other words use just the red ones
