[Problem]asus p8p67 mismatched ram fails too post

i recently got a asus p8p67 pro motherboard i think its a b3 but i dont have the original box
for it got it from ebay 2018
the problem i am having is that i cant get the board too post with out match/kitted ram sticks im currently using 2, 2gbytes in dual channel mode the exact model is:
"elixir m2f2g64cb88b7n-cg" 2x2gbytes 1333mhrz
and i also have another 1333mhrz 2gbyte stick which is:
"unifosa gu512303ep0202"
and i also have a 1066mghrz 4gbyte "g.skill f3 8500cl7d-8gbrl"
which will total 10gigabyte of DDR3 ram
but i dont know how to get the motherboard to work with all the ram and all dimm slots work and it posts with a single stick of the miss matched or with both of the elixir's

Try mixing the ram in different slots. Works sometimes, you also might have gotten a faulty stick, do trial and error.

all my ram have been use in a for a year they are fully functional i have been using this combo of ram in a hp compaq pro 6300 microtower that has a i5 3470 cpu with a gtx 1050 ti but i transplanted the entire thing to the asus board and got a better case with zero instabiliy

 

and also 2 of the stick have ram only on one side and the other 2 have ram on both sides

There are several things to check

Let me see if I understood: if you use each stick alone, one by one, all of them work in this motherboard?

The key is whether they work in the new one, hence why the need to test one by one (or at least type by type). More on this below.

Check your motherboard's manual for memory compatibility, and the specs of each of your kits. Look at everything, things like "sinlge rank" or "double rank" included. Alternatively, just try to post with each stick/kit one by one.

Which RAM settings are you using? As you can see in your screenshots, all kits share JEDEC modes up to JEDEC #2. They all have a JEDEC #3 with the same frequencey, but different timings. I would put one stick only, use it to access the BIOS and make sure that you choose the memory settings corresponding to the JEDEC #2 prfofile (or #1, but not higher than 2), making sure its 533MHz (so 1066MHz) and all the timings are as in this screenshot. Don't let the motherboard choose on its own, force it to use the common profile. Then gradually add kits, and if successful, check BIOS to see if it's keeping your RAM settings.

 

I would also recommend reading the relevant section of motherboard's manual, paying attention to "supported" and "recommended" configurations.
