If the module that, when installed, causes the system to fail to boot is in the same socket each time, that socket is bad -- the mainboard will need to be replaced.
But when I put the old RAM modules back in the system, they work fine and the system boots fine. The system crashes when any of the new modules are inserted into any socket.

That's not uncommon for a system with a bad RAM socket - the newer modules are more demanding than the originals.
