Sometimes the pins can get bent, it is hard to see them clearly without a proper magnifying lens. If you can see any bent contacts in the RAM slot you can bending them back with high precision tweezers, or some similar tool.

Of course, it may be easier to simply return your motherboard if it is still eligible under warranty, or else buy a replacement board if the cost is acceptable.
