Asus Sabertooth 55I MB
i5-750 CPU
Just got this system up and running. Booted up fine the first time. Memtest v4 showed no errors after 6 passes but said the memory was running at 9-9-9-24. Vista 64 installed fine but then ran into problems trying to update and ended up getting a blue screen. I went into the bios and set the XMP parameter and now memtest shows the 8-8-8-21 timings.
I'm currently testing the sticks individually in both the A and B channels. My questions are: 1) Could the improper timings cause the BSOD? and 2) I have ordered another set of this memory for a total of 8GB. With all four sockets populated can I leave the XMP setting in place or should I set the timings manually?
Thanks for the help.
