Well, yeah, of course. But even if I got that wrong, the 4GB alone did not work in the same slots the 2GB sticks were in.
So, either the memory sticks are bad (one or two of them), or the memory have bad timing in some way making them not compatible with the mobo.
That reminds me; some mobos have a default fail-safe settings option with timings and stuff using very conservative numbers. If you haven't already tried that, you might want to give that one a go as well.
NB! This default setting is usually not optimal ("turbo"), but rather settles for stability. A working baseline kinda' thing, if you know what I mean.
If this doesn't work either, you're mem-sticks are as most here have pointed out, bad in some way.
