There doesn't appear to be any bulging caps. In fact, I tested the
DIMMs on a different PC and memtest confirmed their faultiness.

It might be as simple as the bios settings. Which memtest tests gave errors?
Assuming that you have not upgraded the ram or anything like that, it
is probably the chipset. What type of chipset do you have?

As of now, memtests 2,3, and 4 fail (waiting for the rest). The
following bits are listed as Err-Bits (1000,8000,2000).
The chipset is Intel i848/i865. I may install the DIMMs into another
machine and memtest them there.

I switched the DIMMs from dual-channel to single-channel and so far (up
to test 4) I get no errors. Go figure.

This system is listed with the RAM manufacturer's and according to
Kingston's notes:
Systems shipped with 800MHz FSB processors require DDR400 (KTD8300/xxx) parts.
Systems shipped with 533MHz FSB processors require DDR333 (KTD4550/xxx)
