Here's what I'd like you to do.
1. Power down, turn the PSU off, press and hold the cases Power button for 5secs, then remove the power cord from the PSU
2. Remove all eight sticks of memory
3. Clear the BIOS
4. Using the picture below place two sticks ONLY into mem slots B1 and D1
5. Re-apply power and boot it into the BIOS
6. These sticks will automatically boot to the JEDEC Standard speed of 2133, as G.Skill has programmed them to behave.
6a. If these two sticks do not show in the BIOS as 2133, stop here and post back. Otherwise continue following on......
7. Here now while still in the BIOS with these two sticks running 2133, choose/select the XMP Profile Setting to/of 2400, don't do anything else, go to the Save and Exit, Save and Exit, letting it reboot and then head directly back into the BIOS to verify that these two sticks did indeed boot up at 2400. If not, stop here and post back. Otherwise continue following on......
8. Good. These two booted at 2400.
9. Now power down and unplug the PSU from the wall.
10. Now insert the remaining 6 sticks, making sure they are firmly seated in the memory slots.
11. Apply power and fingers crossed bott her up and head straight away into the BIOS. If yo u got to here w/o stopping on the previous steps please take the time to thank an anonymous poster( I forget who exactly, but credits non the les) that had discovered this means/method to get all eight sticks running on their XMP settings/timings.
Sigh....... If not post back
