What are the PSU's wattages in your servers? Maybe the Mobo is not
getting enough juice?

Each dimm slot should have a fault led next to it. Run the machine
and see which of them light up during the failed bootup.
Second: Do the new dram sticks (2X1GB) work alone?
Throw out all ram residue and try to run the machine on those
new ones alone - maybe the ram is faulty. Variation: try it out on a
non-server board.

The board we discuss only supports modules organized as follows:

1Gb 32M X 8 X 8bks 8 14/10
    64M X 4 X 8bks 16 14/11

If you wan't to populate all 8 slots, all sticks got to be
*single ranked*

You could also check the list of supported modules (by manufacturer)
on the intel website.

Try swapping memory between servers - take 2 GB's from one machine,
2 from the second, 2 from the third and run the 4th one on them.
(As long as your buissnes department won't kill you cause of long
maintenance downtimes). A variation of this is populating slots with
identical modules by channel (ignoring banks) - you can look up
in your docs which slots are channel A and which are B.

And update the BIOS in a single machine.

Can not think of anything more without physical contact with your
servers. :)
