Memory issues

A friend of mine is having some problems with some new memory that he bought. He picked up two sets of 2x2gb (8gb total) for his rig. When he installs all 4 sticks his vid card will not work. It works with only 2 sticks at a time, any combination in either set of slots but nothing more than 2 sticks works.

Win XP pro 64
500w psu
Gigabyte GA-M55SLI-S4
Corsair XMS2 DDR2 4x2GB
I think he said he has a 7900gs(gt?)


*edit: nvm, guess he had the wrong spec on the psu, was a 250W. He slapped a bigger one in and all is well.
