Similar motherboard (p7h55m-pro) but same memory and same problem. Gone through second set of memory. Memory OK to use with this mb according to asus and I did not make any changes to the default settings in the bios. Did you find a solution? I'm thinking of throughing the entire pc and going back to 775 dual core. its fast enough without any problems.

Download a copy of memtest86+ and make a bootable CD with it. Boot to this CD and run the memory test for about 4 hours. This test runs outside of Windows and finds RAM errors, if there are any.

Other than this, check and compare your BIOS version against the one on the Asus support web page. If yours is old, update your BIOS to the latest version.
