Problem with RAM?

hey,
So I just upgraded a few parts in my computer. Got a new Graphics Card, new PSU, and upgraded to Vista 64-bit.

While installing the drivers and a few other programs, I kept getting a blue screen, saying "MEMORY_MANAGEMENT". But when it booted, I tried again, and everything worked fine.

So I decided to run a memtest. Now i have 4 sticks of ram, 1 gig each. So i ran 3 tests, testing 2 at a time. And everything was fine, and got no errors back. But when I put all 4 of them and ran the test, my computer restarted after a few seconds of the test starting. Could it be my ram? or my mobo?

Here are my specs:
Motherboard: Asus P5K-E (Wi-Fi edition)
CPU: Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 2.4GHz
Graphics card: nVidia GTX 260 Core 216
PSU: Cooler Master eXtreme Power 600W
RAM: DDR2 4X1GB
Soundcard: Creative Audigy 2 SZ
OS: Windows Vista 64-bit

Any help would be really appreciated :)
 
Run CMOS Setup defaults (usually press DEL on system startup, then locate Setup Defaults, apply Save and exit)

I'd say more of a Motherboard and Ram compatibility issue
Are all Ram cards the same?
Does the Motherboard support website state this Ram is compatible?
 
I am running the default settings.

I'm also pretty sure the RAM is compatible with my motherboard. I've had them in there for a long time now. The problems only started after I made those few changes. :/
 
Set the Video card memory to 64Meg maximum in CMOS Setup as well
Windows will re-adjust this, and it helps your Motherboard (not hinders)
