[QUOTE="HellSlyne, post: 1208587, member: 20004"] Thanks for the replies. Unfortunately, I won't be able to do anything till next week end:( Before checking anything else, I would make sure that the new RAM is infact working. That seems logical. 1) Try 800Hz alone in one of the working slots(slots in which the old RAMs worked fine) If found fine, try below steps: 2) Insert all three RAMs and check their latency timings(in BIOS?). Read somewhere that a mismatch or unsupported latency may lead to instability. 3) Manually set new RAM to run at 667 as suggested by nitant/ronit. I suppose this is done in BIOS. Does this step involve any risk - like frying my MB :D I'll post back as soon as I have an update. [/QUOTE]
