    hello i have a abit aw9d max motherboard with E6600 Core 2 Duo intel processor 2.40 GHZ a GEFORCE 8800 GTX. till this day i have had 2x 1GB DDR2 ram but i bought another 1x 2GB but when i inserted it and my Vista Ultimate booted after a few seconds a blue screen appeared saying i have hardware problems and it dumps memory and the computer reboots i removed the other 2x 1gb rams and it works fine with just the 1x 2GB ram but when i put in just one of the other 1GB it gives me the same error... also if i put both 1GB rams and remove the 2GB ram it will work fine it's like they can't seem to work together i updated my bios to the latest version it still gives me the same error... i installed xp it seems to go for 15-20 minutes and it dumps memory saying i have hardware problems...
    This is the error that it gave me on VISTA:

    On XP it sayd that some irlq thing is less or equal to somthing else i can't seem to read it becouse it happens too fast in like half a second.
    Also my ATX is:cooler master real power m520
    ALL MY RAMs ARE DDR2-800 KINGMAX
    i even followed my manual to what order to put in the rams

    But are they the same on the 2x 1gb sticks and the 1x 2gb stick? Mixing and matching different timings and speeds = problems.

    still have the box they came in? or do you have model numbers so we can check the website?
    or even point them out on the site you bought them from.
