Hello all, i'm hoping somone on here knows more about confirguring memory than me (which isn't hard). I have memory (Corsair 6GB 1600mhz tri channel). If you install it and do nothing it only runs at 1066mhz, corsair says you have to set latency to 9-9-9-24 and set BIOS to XMP profile. When i set BIOS to "XMP Profile 1" windows 7 blue screens. It blue screens on a fresh install and even when booting from the 7 DVD, so i don't think the problem is software related. Is there maybe a hardware config problem i'm supposed to be addressing? Also, is there a recommended program to test/verify what your memory is running at? I welcome any suggestions as i don't know all that much about memory config...i miss the old days when you would install RAM and it just ran at the frequency that was on the package, with no settings or config. My build is below, thank you for any advice!
