I have recently purchased a Gskill Aegis F3-1333 (2x4 GB) for my Dell desktop. When I put both the sticks it freezes at the BIOS. However when I try installing it one stick at a time it takes me past the BIOS however gets stuck at the Windows logo and then reboots with the message "Preparing for Automatic repair" and my desktop simply freezes. I'm not able to make any changes in the BIOS to the RAM timings as it is locked. How to I proceed with installing the new RAM?
