GA-P35-DS3R memory slots 1+2 not working

Hello. Well Iv been having a bit of a hard time with my setup lately. First it just shut down and would not post, at first I thought it was a PSU problem but after trying another borrowed PSU it would only boot with memory sticks in either slot 3 or 4 or both but NOT at all if I had any ram in either slots 1 or 2. Has anyone any experience with this problem. Thanks

Could be so many things. I dont want to get a new board only to find its a PSU or something else that is failing??

Dont think its the memory as ALL sticks work in slots 3+4. It could be the board. But Iv been messing with it most of today and it hasnt booted once so I think what ever it is its finally given up

Well It seems it is the mobo thats gone. So I need to get another one. I was thinking of a complete upgrade but I cant justify the money needed for that so can anyone recommend me a good Socket 775 board that does SLI then I may just get myself another 8800GTX?
