I RMAed some memory because I kept blue screening and Vista diagnostics said I had bad memory. So I get the new memory and when I boot it says my overclocking settings are wrong. I am like WTF, I have everything set to auto or disabled. After a couple of tried I finally noticed that bios's auto settings for memory puts it at 1.85v and ddr2 800. I look at the memory specs on the box and it needs 2.2v and is ddr2 1066. After a little bit of search on the internet I found out while my motherboard lists it can support ddr2 1066 but anything above ddr2 800 you have to manually overclock. So my previous memory probably wasn't bad.
