This seems like a common question and I'm no computer genius, so I appreciate any help

I just moved to Win764-bit home ultimate from Vista32. Everything runs fine with 2 x 2GB in the yellow slots. When I attempt to add two additional 2GB RAM modules (same OCZ PC2 6400, 800MHz, for a total of 4 x 2GB), the system won't boot, telling me that the physical windows boot memory is missing?

What am I missing? Do I need to manually set something in the bios (I'm not overclocked)? Any help appreciated. :)

Solved the problem. Simply flashed my bios with the newest update at the Asus site (bios menu of the support page). Re-entered bios menu after boot, set dram to default values & shut down. Added dimms and everything OK.
