I have an Asus P5KE, running with see sig. It was running fine with 2Gb of ram, until I added another 2Gb. When I was surfing the web it just restarted (as though the power had gone; however it would then get stuck loading windows, and when I selected "start windows normally" it would reboot when the loading bar for vista appears, and repeat.

I have tried the combinations of new ram and old ram, all in different dimms; however as soon as the four dimms are full, the problem happens. Sometimes it manages to load into windows before it reboots.

I was aware that when using 2x2GB or 4x1Gb of ram you need to rasie the northbridge voltage, however when raised to 1.40 it still restarted; now at 1.55 (been stable for about 1 hour - although I think that is quite high?)

I'm using bios 1004

Any help is greatly appreciated
 
Cheers, yeah all double checked; however I uninstalled the update; apparently already had it installed, and then reinstalled it, and have been running prime for 1 hour so far:D

Thanks for your help;)
