Hi

Recently upgraded to the following:

Intel Core 2 Duo E2200 "LGA775 Conroe" 2.20GHz (800FSB) - Retail
Gigabyte GA-P35C-DS3R (Socket 775) PCI-Express DDR2 & DDR3 Motherboard
OCZ 4GB (2x2GB) PC2-6400C5 Dual Channel Vista Gold Series DDR2 (OCZ2G8004GK) (Deal Product)

And I am having a few issues

1) I cannot get the memory to run at the correct timings 5-5-5-18. I have set the timings manual in the BIOS and set the memory voltage trying normal, +0.1, 0.2, 0.3 but windows vista 64 has none of it. I constantly get BSOD, mainly Memory Management, but sometimes Pagefault in non paged area. I had this issue when I was trying to install Vista with these timings, I had to resort back to motherboard Auto which puts the memory at 6-6-6-18 to install Vista. I have tried the memory in both dual channel slots.

2) For some reason my Auzentech HDA X-Mystique PCI sound card and Hauppauge Nova-T PCI card are not detected in vista properly, nor were they detected properly in winxp. They appear in device manager with the exclamation mark next to them but when I point to the right drivers it fails to install sayings windows could not find drivers for your device. Also when I try to run the installation setups for the drivers it fails to detect the PCI cards. I have one other PCI Card with is an Atheros 5005GS wireless card which installs fine and have had no problems with, I have tried this in all the PCI slots and it works fine.
Vista did manage to install the soundcard once just randomly after a reboot, but didnt detect the tv card. Since then I have moved the PCI cards into different slots and neither of them are now being detected.

These issues have occurred before and after SP1 installation and I have installed the latest chipset drivers and latest motherboard BIOS.

Any help is much appreciated.
 
Just having a look at CPU-Z info and im a little confused as to why my CPU is underclocked and that memory SPD table shows 5-6-6-18 @ 400mhz.

I guess my motherboard isnt setup correctly for CPU and the RAM doesnt have the timings I expected.
