model of the motherboard: 132-CK-NF79-A1 - EVGA LGA 775 NVIDIA nForce 790i Ultra SLI ATX Intel
model of the memory: F3-10600CL9D-4GBPK x 2 (4 sticks, 8gb total)
model of the CPU: BX80569Q9550 - Intel Core 2 Quad Q9550 Yorkfield 2.83GHz 12MB L2 Cache LGA 775 95W
My new system won't run with four sticks but runs fine with just two. I did the install and set up with only two sticks and once I was done installing everything, I put the full four sticks in. The main board sometimes gets past post but never any further than that and immediately blue screens. I increased the voltage of the memory to 1.65v (up from the default of 1.5v) and the system now boots and loads windows but any time I try and do any activity that takes memory, it immediately faults and goes to blue screen.
It seemed that simply upping the voltage help a lot but I don't know if there are other voltages that need to be adjusted as well to get it more stable. I was wondering if you have any advice for recommended bios settings for that main board and memory using four sticks.
Thanks
