I am having a BSOD (Blue screen of Death) crashes with the stop code: Stop 0x0000000A or IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL ever since I installed my new memory.
Heres a link to the stop codes: http://www.geekstogo.com/forum/topic/43519-windows-xp-blue-screen-of-death-stop-codes/
The new memory I am installing is Patriot Signature 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin , 4 sticks of it so it comes to 16 gigabytes. Thats 16 gbs of DDR3 1600 memory. The old memory is 2 GBs of DDR3 1333
Heres a link to the memory I am installing: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820220569
I recently just put the old memory back in to see if I would still have any BSOD crashes and it seems that I am not having anymore crashes. I was hoping that my problem is that my powersupply isn't supplying enough power with the new memory installed so all I would have to do is buy a bigger powersupply and not send the new memory back to newegg.com
Heres my current build:

So the question is what do I need to do to my computer to make it work with the new memory? Is it the powersupply that is causing the BSOD crashes? I did a memory diagnostic test with the new memory installed and there were no errors. Do I have to change any settings in the BIOS? What do I have to do to make the new memory work?
