I have a gigabyte GA-B75M-D3H motherboard and a pair of 2gb kingston hyperX genesis on dual channel on ddram 3 and ddram 4 slots. I bought a 4gb kingston hyperX fury ram stick to add to it but when I plug it on ddram2 slot I get short beeps with no pattern repetedly and if I put on ddram1 slot the computer keeps turning on and off with no error beeps and no post beeps. If I connect the new one alone my computer will start, if I connect the new one and a single 2gb one my computer will also start, but I can't find a way to put the 3 all together and have my computer running. I am asking because I have a few days to contact the seller and ask for my money back if that is the case so I would like to know if there is anything I can do for this configuration to work. I don't know if I should upgrade bios, get another one of the same type and have 2 pairs, each pair in dual channel, change the order on the slots, etc. Here are some images:

mixing memory is a crap shoot might work might not, if you would of posted first I would of recommended spending the 40 bucks and buying a new 2X4gb set of memory and removing your old memory.
But anyhow you need to list the exact memory your using now and the exact memory you bought.
Links to the memory works good.

KHX1600C9D3K2/4GX is my current 2x2gb kit
HX316C10FR/4 is my new memory stick

I think there are 2 questions here, one is if it is even possible for my motherboard to deal with 2 ram modules in dual channel and a different one in single channel. And the second is given the first one is true, what is wrong with this picture, is it bios version, bios configuration, slot position settup, my memory sticks are too diferent from each other and my motherboard can't handle them, etc. Also given the fact that the machine will post with a single 2gb one and the new 4gb one. I sent a ticket to gigabyte support but I think it's faster to expect my ram sticks to reproduce.
