Triple Channel 6gb? Bah! HELP!

I have the Corsair Dominator GT 6gb (2gbx3) on my system with the ASUS Rampage II extreme (check sig). I cant seem to get triple channel to work. Everytime I change slots it either says Single channel or Dual. And I can only get windows to recognize either 2gb or 4gb. I used to have it at 6gb Dual Channel when I looked in System and CPU-Z. But I got greedy and tried to get the triple channel to work and now I cant get it back to what it was. I have 6 memory slot bays, right now the memory sticks are in bay 1(white) 2(blue) 5(white). If I mess around and put the memory sticks in different slots sometimes the monitor doesnt even turn on. So I change the slots around again and then it will. So I dont know what thats all about. Is there an easier way to do this? This is what CPU-Z is saying.

Either one of the sticks is bad, or one of the slots.

Try booting the computer with only 1 stick in the
first slot. Try each stick, one at a time and see what happens.

Ive done all that. I dont think any of the sticks are bad because I used to have it say in System RAM: 6GB. So they all work. Ill try doing that 1 memory stick at a time thing and see what happens. Otherwise im going to take it to a computer professional and try and get him to set it up for me
