DDR 18V failure

Still can't find out how to check how much voltage my Crucial Ballistix Tracers DDR 1066 are receiving. BIOS Setup, mobo book page 51, Gigabyte P35 DQ6 CMOS Setup Utility PC Health Status, the line DDR 18V should read OK, it does not. It reads Failed. What does this mean?

18v will fry your memory. 1.8v is what the ddr2 JEDEC standard is, your memory requires 2.2v to run at it's rated speed.

The mobo book shows a picture of this particular CMOS Screen and begins to list each line item, followed by "disabled" or "OK". The next three lines are defined as Current Voltage. Vcore "OK", DDR18V "failed", +3.3V "OK", +12V "OK". I agree, 18 volts shouldn't be anywhere on the motherboard. If it failed, what component wouldn't work?
