Hi, I recently built a computer with the following parts:

AMD A10-6800K
Gigabyte F2A55M-HD2
EVGA 500B

I am using Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit.

I originally started with 1 x 8gb stick of ram, but it seemed to bottleneck the system, especially the apu, so I went out and got 2 x 4gb sticks of corsair vengeance lp for my system.
Everything seemed to be running smoothly for a couple days and the bottleneck issue was solved.

Today when I attempted to start my computer up I get a BSOD with error BAD_POOL_HEADER.

I attempt to restart and skip the repair option that startup offers me and it continually reboots. If I try the repair option i get BSOD with the same error. I can't even get Windows to load.

I have tried both sticks individually (and in different slots) and it boots fine. I am typing this using the computer right now with 1 stick of ram.

Can anybody please help me?
 
Solution
well you have 1600 sticks that run at CL11, Insert both sticks, then go into the BIOS and set them manually to 1600, and the base timings to 11-11-11-30, the DRAM voltage to 1.55 and the CPU/NB voltage to 1.175

How do I find this? Sorry I'm kinda new to this.

I'm just gonna list off the numbers that the ram stick has labeled on it.

1600 MHz
11-11-11-30
1.50v
ver 2.12

Not sure what these numbers are lol
