So, I have an Asus Striker Extreme motherboard: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131074
Up until now, I've been successfully using 2x1GB of DDR2 SDRAM: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820134117
Well, recently, I've decided to buy 2x2GB more of DDR2 SDRAM: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820134582
This would make for a total of 6 GB of memory. Now, my motherboard has four slots, A1, A2, B1, B2. According to the manual, A1+A2 must equal B1+B2. So, I put in 1GB+2GB = 1GB+2GB. When I did this, my computer turned on, I logged in, and about 30 seconds after logging in, I got a blue screen and my computer restarted. Is what I did alright? If so, why is it messing up like this? The sticks that I bought are all from the same brand (Kingston) and from what I can tell are close to the same aside from the different sizes of GB.
Will somebody please help me?
Thank you!!
EDIT: I've tested both the 2x1GB and 2x2GB by themselves and they each work fine. It only blue screens if I try everything at once.
