Ram Issues

well i have been struggling to OC on my new mobo, so been told to go back to basics and start again. now it would appear the problem is down to my ram. its DDR1066, it runs fine and passes memtest if its left to that, but as soon as i force 1066 it causes issues and memtest fails.
is there anything i can do to rectify this? i have tried putting the timing and voltage settings in manually but still the same.

passes fine with everything on auto apart from DRAM set to 1002. could it be faulty ram or am i just not getting the settings right?

not sure if this has any relevance but do i need to do something to change it from EPP 1 to EPP 2?

ok, the thing that is concerning me is it seems to be stuck on EPP 1.0, is this a mobo problem or ram issue?

yeah i tried that and it did the same, it just seems to be locked to EPP 1.0, guessing its possibly a mobo issue, as i have tried it with 1 stick at a time in all 4 slots and it still does it so the chances of 4 sticks all being faulty doesnt seem right.
