Are you running a 64bit OS? Is it a 2x4GB set? Can ensure both sticks are are firmly seated, if still problems can run Memtest on each stick individually to make sure they are good, if both good, check to make sure you have the latest BIOS and that your mobo (don't have any idea what you are running) will take 4GB sticks...would help to know the actual model # of the sticks, the CPU and the mobo you have

the model i purchased was F3-12800CL8D-8GBXM
my motherboard is EVGA ftw 3 i am sure it supports the memory module since my friend is running the same specs
i have tested the both memory sticks individually in all the slots and only 1 of them is readable the other ram my computer doesnt even boot to bios

If one boots and the other does not, you will need to send them in for RMA.
