To lose one memory chip may be considered a misfortune; to lose two
looks like carelessness.

I've moved a lot of memory around in my time and it's more robust than
they'd have you believe.  Two (three?) faulty modules is unlikely enough
to make me look elsewhere.  You've probably disturbed something else
which is causing your problem.  Have you for instance dislodged the
video card?  Try removing and re-seating it.  Likewise with anything
else which might have come detached.
