Possible Motherboard or RAM issue?

Since I got my computer around christmas time I had been experiencing many crashes and BSOD. At first I thought it could be drivers or an OS (windows 7 64 bit) issue but that wasn't the case. If I use 1 stick of the RAM i have the computer works fine. It doesnt matter what stick though. However both sticks together will cause the problems. The motherboard is an ASUS M4A78LT-M LE and the RAM is G Skill F3-1066CL9D-4GBNQ. Any idea what could be the issue?

I've tried memtest before bu I think i'll run it again on the second slot as both sticks passed before.

I've tried both slots with both sticks and they work. Hwoever both together cause problems.

Nope I'm not overclocking anything at the moment.

how many slots do you have available? they usually require you to go slots 1 and 3 or 2 and 4 if you only have 2 sticks. Putting ram in 2 consecutive slots might cause a problem.

Hi,

Your MB supports only DDR2-1200, DDR2-1066, DDR2-800, DDR2-667RAM and you will need to make sure that both the slots are used by identical ram check if all the specs of both RAM sticks match cos it looks like incompatible Sticks
