So how can he then (in your words)

    "Just force the original dealer to give your money back.
    He legally has to do that when they clearly wont work
    in that motherboard which obviously isn't defective when
    the 64MB dimm from the other supplier works fine."

You have just indicated that quite obviously (read "Duh") the RAM is not
necessarily faulty.

Later

PS It is as simple as I said in respect to the banks/sides, as number of
devices determines the number of banks (max 9 devices per bank).

Aside:
Quote from Intel (note I was wrong on board max which is actually 512Mb):
System Memory
The D815EEA desktop board supports up to 512 MB of dynamic memory. The three
168-pin Dual Inline Memory Module (DIMM) sockets support 3.3V unbuffered 100
MHz, or 133 MHz, Synchronous Dynamic Random Access Memory (SDRAM) DIMMs. If
PC133 memory is going to be run at the full 133 MHz, only four of the six
DIMM sides can be used (two double-sided DIMMs, or one double-sided DIMM
plus two single-sided DIMMs).
