Are you sure the graphics card is compatible? What version is your pci-e slot? If it's version 1.0 and your card is say 2.1 then it won't work. Not all Pci-e cards are backwards compatible and some are.

Sometimes the RAM will turn on, but will cause the system to immediately crash. Try it with one dimm at a time.
