Hi,

I am having problems getting my memory to work at its full specs of 1066mhz.

My Computer specs are:

Motherboard: ASUS M3N-HT/Mempipe
CPU: AMD Phenom 9950
Memory: TWIN2X4096-8500C5 (2 X 2GB [4GB])
Vid Card: EVGA Geforce 9800 GTX+
Power Supply: Antec Quattro 850W
Hard Drive: 2 x 500GB WD Hard Drives

When i put the sticks into my computer, the computer ran completely fine, and i've had a look at Everest and it shows that my memory is
DDR2-800 DDR2 SD RAM (5-5-5-18 @ 400 MHz) (4-4-4-12 @ 266 MHz) which i thought was wrong so then I went into my BIOS and set these values:

Memory Voltage: 2.1 V
(DRAM Configuration)
Memory Clock Frequency: DDR 1066
Tcl: 5
Trcd: 5
Trp: 5
Tras: 15
1T/2T Memory Timing: 2T

Once i did this, my windows failed to boot and sometimes the computer would not even boot at all, so i had to reset my Jumpers/CMOS to get it working back at default again.

Am i doing something wrong?
What settings should i be changing specifically?
What do i do about these other settings, i have no clue what they are.
Memory DCT Mode, Memory Hole Remapping, Ai clock skew (channel A clcok skew, channel B clock skew), all the Advanced Memory settings, DRAM Timing Control, Output driver control and how about the voltage settings in the advanced tab?

I have a very well cooled computer and have my cpu idle'ing at 34degrees so i didn't think it would be a heat issue.. please help! I'd very much like to take advantage of the 1066MHz memory that i paid for

Thanks!
