How many memory modules?

Try and be clear, or I suggest you contact support in your region instead.

Best to take a deep breath as it is also frustrating for the person trying to help when the information is too patchy.

That DRAM may need more voltage than the board is defaulting. Check the spec of the RAM and liase with local support as this is something they should be able to help you with.

1. when you tell Corsair value select DDR3 it mean NOTHING :] what kit it is ? 4 GB , 8 GB or more ?
2. is you os from orginal dvd or you got it from somewhere ?
3. did you had your os installed before without any problems ?
4. what OS you try to install
5. stock bios = what number ?:p on asus site you can check cpu compatibility

anyway solution no1 :
upgrade bios to newest one , like 0603 or 0703 ( Improve DRAM compatibility , Improve System stability )
no2 . if this wont help read about what os you try to install maybe image is corrupted and you get bsod
no3. try with 1 ram only install it
if bios change + 1 ram wont help rma it at shop where you purchased it .
no4. you can always run memtest from dvd to check if your ram isnt damaged ( google for it burn on dvd and make your dvd or any cd/dvd/bluray as 1rst and run memtest from it test only 1 ram every time , like 1-4 h should be enough )
and on your place i would start from upgrading bios 🙂 ( http://www.asus.com/Motherboards/Intel_Socket_1155/P8Z68_DELUXE/#download )
