I would try re-seating both ram modules. As a side not, if you have this enabled, I would recommend enabling "fast boot" or "quick boot" in the CMOS setup screen. This basically bypasses the bit by bit RAM check that your computer goes through during every single boot up process. Certainly not a necessity unless you have reason to believe your RAM is malfunctioning.
