DQ57TM not recognising any more than 4GB RAM

DQ57TM not recognising any more than 4GB RAM: "

I have built a new PC and all is good except for RAM. I had old RAM from a couple of years ago so I thought I would use that. It is OCZ PC3 1066 which is what the board can use. The board is a Intel MBI-DQ57TM. Well it would not boot with any of the RAM sticks installed, so changed the RAM to old DDR3 1066 Kingston RAM that was in the cupboard and all is good. I bought a 4GB 1066 PC3 Kingston stick of RAM to boost the PC to 8Gig and once installed it would not boot. Tried with just the new stick of RAM and no go. Removed this and installed the original RAM and all is good.

Any ideas?
