Hello everyone, i have a problem with new 2x4GB G-Skill Ripjaw 1333mhz DDR3 ram modules. I bought them yesterday, brand new, tried to connect them, everything was good until Windows logo, pc just randomly shuts off and back on again, it is driving me crazy! I tried removing battery from motherboard (Intel DH55PJ), reseting bios settings, updating bios and still nothing. When i put old ram card everything is fine, both card slots are working. Bios setting for memory - 9, 9, 9, 24, 1.5v, same setting goes for my old card and its running normally, i tried everything, i saw 100 same topics about this but still nothing works for me, i hope somebody can help me, im sorry about my english, its not that good. Thank you all guys!

Are you working on Windows 10 with this new ram setup? If so then this sounds like an installation of Windows 10 via the free upgrade path. If it is an upgrade path installation then revert to older OS, introduce your ram kit, reinstall your older OS and then upgrade to Windows 10. What was your older ram capacity?
