That's a strange one ! Older board would have to get the bios upgraded
before they would handle that much ram . You could check that out at the
board manufacture's website . Also you could ask the memory manufacture if
he has any ideas. Jym
one stick at a time works fine
I also updated Bios it is a ASROCK M7VM2 mother board one site said some thing about XP and anything over 512 might need some new codes for XP

There is no problem whatever with Windows XP and RAM up to at least 3
gb, and it is designed to work with up to 4 gb and has been used that
way by a number of people.

"The reason computer chips are so small is computers don't eat much."
Those symptoms are a classic example of mis-matched RAM.
RAM from different manufacturers, or even from the same manufacturer
but different production lots, can have internal differences in the
physical layout and/or the material composition of the RAM chips.
These differences can affect the strength and timing of the signals
returned from the RAM and Windows is sensitive to these differences.
Good luck
