Are the RAM sticks the same make and model? Are they the same voltage. Mismatched RAM sticks will always cause BSOD's. It's very important to get matching memory.

not the same timings might be the same but the sticks are different and is probably the cause of the BSOD
I wouldn't fiddle with voltages because it pretty much won't behave untill you either take one pair out or go buy the right set of ram which is ........

Same Brand ,Same speed ,Same profile style and vin number mixing and matching ram works sometimes but as usual it is a Gamble
