My system is crashing because of the Atikmpag and Atikmdag. Some say I should check my BIOS for my ram timings and ram voltage and make sure it's ok.

I checked the timings and from what I gather, the top 4 were 9-9-9-24 like people suggested but I don't know how to change the voltage. I found the location where it says DRAM 1.5v but when I go in the options I just see 1.64 and 1.66. The 1.66 and beyond is pink font. Should I got to 1.64 or 1.66 when people say it's 1.65v? Does the pink font mean it's dangerous at that level?

Here is my system:

I have 10.6 CCC from ATI.

The first XFX 5770 I had ran default speeds of 400/1200 for some reason. I know they are supposed to be 157/300. I RMA'd that one and now have a Sapphire 5770 and the default is 157/300.

You are saying I should reduce* them? I was told the opposite, to actually increase the idle to 200/400.

I haven't changed them yet.

Please help.
