When I purchase memory, I *always* use the memory vendor's memory
selection tool on their web site to find compatible memory modules.
Your original post provides the motherboard make and part number, but
not the memory part number.
Here are the results using Patriot's "Memory Finder":

What is the part number on your memory modules?
Is it listed above?
If not, return your memory modules and buy one of the above.
If so and you're tried two sets of memory modules, then I'd suggest
trying another motherboard.
I have encountered situations where memory modules recommended by the
manufacturer worked on one motherboard but fail intermittently on
another motherboard. My solution was to leave the modules in the
motherboard where they worked (I was years beyond returning them).
HTH,
