Are the two pairs of memory the same manufacturer?
If you have the manual, check page 2-11. There is a Qualified Vendor
List. If you use other brand or size modules, you may experience
problems.
The note below Table 2 says that when using 800 MHz CPU FSB speed,
PC2700 DIMMs may run at 320 MHz (not 333 MHz) due to chipset limitation.
Look into the BIOS and make sure the CPU and memory buss speeds are
correct. Set the memory CAS, etc. timings manually.
