Can you post your system specs? A bios update may help this...

Asus Crosshair Motherboard
AMD Athlon 64 x2 4600

Asus motherboards are very picky when it come to memory types and speeds. Try raising the memory voltage just a step or two and see if the system stabilizes. I have an ABIT motherboard with a Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 CPU rated at 2.4GHz running at 3.4GHz. I raised the CPU voltage and the DDR voltage just 2 steps to get this stable increase in speeds

found the Volts set @ auto in bios been having a look at what the volts should be set at ,, but have just installed new graphics drivers am just gonna wait it out to see if it bsod again ,, btw me and bios dont mix so its at a last resort lol

sorry for double post my crosshair from asus is rubbish lol i was thinking awile back to upgrade it as ASUS dont support my motherboard with lets say windows 7 :/ ,, " and they dont really care about updating the crosshair at all :| ,,

anyways look on the bios very own voltage monitoring and it says

DDR2 Voltage 1.87V = " i noticed alot of peeps say for my memory not to go over 1.2 v " i can evan see the option to change that

CPU Voltage is 1.29V = " thats greyed out and no matter what i choose its still greyed out "

so am all confused now

You have to click on the auto setting line and turn them to manual or user settings. My memory is set at 1.82v so if you can lower that voltage a bit. The CPU voltage should be okay
