I had the same combination.

Abit and Ballistix 5300.

So, as you said, the board wont boot, so I tried different memory, same Transcend (but not D9Gxx)

So, I'd always put a voltage at somewhat 2.3v, then let the board boot, till the Win boot screen, then turned it off.

Put out Trand, and put in both sticks of Ballistixe, and it always worked.

I've had that situation every time I cleared CMOS.

So I've saved a profile and had that stick for emergency.

Hope you'll get it working with Ballistix.
