PROBLEM(instability, blue screen)after installing G.Skill F2-8500CL5D-4gbpk

[esupaiku]

I instaled the two 2gb modules on my system and now i get errors resulting in memory dump (blue screen).
CPU: Core 2 Duo 8500 3.16ghz
Motherboard: GA-ep45-ds3l Bios Version F8
RAM: G.Skill F2-8500CL5D-4GBPK

PROBLEMS:
-Random software crashes (including OS crashes which lead to pc restart)
-When ever i run a heavy game (like crysis) i get an error "Graphics Driver nvlddmkm.sys has stopped workin" a few times, and after that the blue screen (memory dump) which resets my computer. Everywhere i asked i was told its a RAM problem.

Please help me solve this.

I still get errors on memtest86 and BurnIn Test with that config.

[G.SKILL]

would you like to test one stick at one time to check if there is one defective?
If it still fails memtest, please RMA with us
thanks

I run lots of mem tests with all sorts of different programs, every single one gave errors. Tried sticks separately and in all 4 slots. So i called my retailer, he told me to send sticks back, he cheked and had no errors, but he used a different motherboard. I'm guessing there's clearly some compatibility issue between mother ( GA-EP45-DS3L) and this ram (G.Skill F2-8500CL5D-4gbpk )

If you have this mother please test with this ram and if you can get it to work with no errors and stable, please post some screen shots of the exact BIOS config used for the RAM.
Or maybe i need to change something in the Processor config? I didnt change a thing for the Processor, could it be that the default settings for the Processor cause the instability?

THanks.

we'll contact with Gigabyte to test for us wit hthis combination
but we tested it on GA-EP45-DS3R and found no problem

What nVidia driver are you using and what OS (including service packs)

nvlddmkm.sys is part of your graphics driver package.

windows 7 and the last drivers 1.85.In vista the same error.
