XP Pro with 4GHz DDR3 fails to boot at Mup.sys

[Frank]

XP runs fine with 2 Gig of DDR3 mem installed. MoBo is DX38BT, cpu is Cr2D
E8400 3GHz. When i add 2nd set of CD3X1024-1800C7D mem sticks for a total of
4 gig system bios sees it, but XP hangs on boot up at:
"multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\windows\system32\drivers\Mup.sys" boot
up hangs at this line and will not proceed. Boot up into Safe Mode will
work but system will hang if trying to boot up normal at that line listed
above. Any suggestions or answers as to why system will not boot to normal
mode with the 4 gig of DDR3 mem installed. Take the two sticks out leaving 2
gig of exact same ram and system boots fine with out any problems.

What are CD3X1024-1800C7D mem sticks? Why did you not obtain memory to
match what is already installed.

Memory - maximum supported 8 GB
Memory frequency (refer to TPS for configuration requirements) Dual
Channel DDR3 1333/1066/800 MHz
