I bought this from newegg about 2-3 days ago link (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16820231065) as to up grade from my OCZ Gold PC5400 before I switched out I reset bios meaning go into bios load all the defaults. Then reset cmos and to make sure I wouldn't have any timings in there and put the sticks in.
I boot up the machine and I hear it all click on and spin up but nothing is going to the screen. (I have also tried booting up after I had the sticks in and started the machine up and it doesn't work) tried each stick in each slot and no combination of those worked either.
tried 2 different pci cards and pci-e card all NVIDIA mainly to rule out a bad slot that wasn't is so I got frustrated and put my old sticks back in and they booted up no problems.
The system specs are
MSI K9N SLI bios is 5/23
AMD 3000+ Orleans
Insert ram here G.Skill, OCZ, or patriot
Antec neo 480w power supply
80 GB WD caviler SATA
Sony drw 501
The ram I have are here mainly because the OCZ is being sold locally so I needed something to hold me over so I got the Patriot since the G.Skill wasn't working.

OCZ ram (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16820227046)
Any help anyone can give me would defiantly be a big help
I don’t have any other systems that take ddr2 but if 2 sets of ram work and another doesn't I find that a little bit hard to believe.
