That unknown mainboard is a DFI K6BV3+
I think the memory is bad. Try pushing it very much on the board and
check if it comes up. Count some beeps if it doesn't.

If you can't fiddle it out, just goto www.dfi.com
I've had a DFI P2XLX with something broken: Sometimes the whole system
hangs and doesn't reboot. The memory slots were broken.

That DFI K6BV3+ board isn't very old, I think it's still in warranty
(I sold one on 18 sep 1999)
