I have a Vostro 400 that is running Win 7 64 bit ultimate and has 2x1gb ddr2 PC6400 Nanya ram 6-6-6-18. I added 2x2gb GSkill ddr2 PC6400 5-5-5-15 (6gb total now) and updated a couple drivers via Driver Genius. Things ran fine for about a day and now the computer freezes and restarts under load. I can boot into safe mode and it runs fine. I haven't found much info from searching whether it is because of the difference in ram or if it could be a driver issue. I updated the chipset driver, network driver, and a couple other misc drivers.
Things I have tried :
1. Ran MemTest86 and everything went well.
2. Ran anti virus and spyware, came up clean.
3. Removed the new ram so I was back at the stock 2gb - still froze and restarted
4. Removed stock ram and installed the GSkill 2x2gb - still froze and restarted
5. Made sure I installed the ram correctly (2x1gb in slot 1 & 3 and 2x2gb in 2 &4)
I am not sure where to go from here. Any help would be great. Thanks in advance.
