try shutting off the computer and then boot up using 1 stick of ram at a time. if they all work try switching them around maybe one of the memory slots on the motherboard is failing. You can also try booting up with the default bios settings.

goodluck

Did you do what I did once and re-install by accidentally grabbing the 32-bit version instead of the 64-bit one?

Id say you grabbed 32 bit as well.

by the looks of the amount of ram you specifically showed it does seem like you got your hands on a 32bit rather then a 64bit win 7 =]
