I have gigabyte motherboard H57M-USB3 with Inter core i5-760 processor and kingston k24-7070 1333Mhz memory card which is not working. are they compatible? what can i do to make it work?

detach all what you can from the motherboard llet only video card , CPU and try to start is so and see the outcome.if is working put bak one at the time and wich is not starting that one is faulty.

There should be some sort of beeps then. No beeps is an indication the CPU or RAM is not seated properly. You need to refer to board manual if there are beeps.
There is also the matter of... Never mind I just noticed the CPU is an 8 core CPU, but the board supports quad core.

Double check my findings and go from there. Good Luck

Should work with a processor of the same socket type. I'd seriously upgrade the psu myself. Personally I'd upgrade the motherboard and processor to a quad core, and get the fastest ram, look at ebuyer.com, you can buy a bundle upgrade package for less than you may think. :)

Has the card got an additional power socket on the leading edge, make sure you have put the 6 pin PCIX power plug to the card from the PSU.

You may want to download memtest86+ and burn it to a CD, boot from that CD and it will tell you if the memory stick is bad.

It does sound like bad memory though

update your bios version , to a higher version , use dual core to update

this motherboard can't support any type of dual core or core 2 dou processors.
but it can support some 256mb AGP video cards( like: 7300gs AGP or 7200gs AGP)

Yes for the Intel Pentium 4/2.4GHz/533FSB processor. (Socket 478)

(Scroll through. What sSpec number is on top of the processor's case? {You are following Anti-Static Precautions, correct? }

Won't support better than a Prescott Core Pentium 4. (Next chart down)

The Gigabyte GA-8I ((Supports 400MHz or 533MHz FSB)

NO to the Ram Memory.
The Gigabyte GA-8I845GVM-RZ supports DDR Sdram at 333Mhz. (PC2700)
IMHO it will not support DDR Sdram at 400MHz. (PC3200)

My reasoning is this;

Ram Memory typically operates at half of the FSB frequency rate of the Processor.

Processor FSB > MAXIMUM frequency rate is 533MegaHertz for the GA-8I845GVM-RZ
Ram memory at 333MHz is doable.
Not 400MHz.

No, you won't be able to overclock, and bring the FSB of the Processor high enough for PC3200 Ram Memory.
(The rest of the motherboard wouldn't work anyway if you did. PCI Express bus, PCI bus, etc., would not match)

Every system needs a rock-solid foundation, and that's just what you get with this Gigabyte GA-8S649MF motherboard. It features Socket 775 compatibility and support for Intel Pentium 4 or Pentium Dual-Core processors with 800 MHz front side bus speeds. Two DIMM slots support up to 2 GB of DDR400 system memory.

To solve this problem at first clear CMOS by removeing CMOS battery then replace ur CPU.

if it not solve ur problem then check ur bios verson 1002 or not if it 0940 then update ur bios. u can download this update file from this link: http://support.asus.com/download/download.aspx?SLanguage=en-us&model=P5E3
