Hi guys. Like the title says I breadboxed my computer and dusted and then put it back together.

The only problem is where I originally was able to install 8 GB of RAM I can only install 4 GB or else the computer doesn't boot.

I've tested all the memory sticks and they are not the problem.

What could be going wrong?

Here are my specs:

Intel Core i5 2500k
MSI p67a/g43
8 GB RAM
OCZ 128GB SSD
Antec 300 with fans for all slots
25" ASUS VS238H 1080p
Antec Basiq 550w
EVGA GTX 460 768MB
Cooler Master 212+ HSF
