I currently own 4 GB of OCZ High Performance Gaming Memory (PC2 6400 Gold Edition XTC 5-5-5-12) and an ASUS P5K-SE motherboard.

When I put 2 GB of memory in the computer runs fine. However, if I add all 4 GB of memory the computer crashes (giving me the 'blue screen of death') and wont recover so I need to reformat every time. Any ideas as to if I could change the timings or the voltage to make these work? The timings are defaulted to 5-5-5-15 and the voltage is set at 'auto' configure which I don't know what the default is (I would guess 1.8V).

Thanks

Have you thought this could be faulty RAM?

Put in one stick reboot,what happens?

Remove that stick put in another,reboot what happens?

Do this for each individual stick.

Any beep codes on startup?

no beeps on start up. I already had to return the other 2 GB of ram for being faulty so I hope that both packages were not faulty or this would look really bad for OCZ....

The OCZ webpage says that 1.9 volts is the maximum without affecting the warranty.

I find that funny that OCZ says 1.9 is the max considering when I called them the guy told me to kick it up to 2.1 V.......of course, there is a reason I am asking for help here and not with OCZ anymore. :-) Thanks for the help so far I will try to post more info as it comes.
