ok so for the last few weeks I've been having a few issues with my computer. Basically a lot of software that worked perfectly before a mobo,cpu,memory upgrade started to crash. Bluescreen issues but also dll crashes. most of the debugs pointed to non hardware issues.
a few of the bluescreen blamed my ethernet driver but also a few of them were blaming the os
i removed my cpu overclock but still had the crashes
i did a full reinstall of my os and all software thinking legacy drivers for the mobo and hardware may be the issue
I think i found the problem now ,it was the XMP for my 16gb of ram, i ran memtest on it for about 11 passes with no crashes, i did this stick by stick and all together all fine
so now to the issue, i'm running my ram now at the default mobo settings and its stable but i want the memory to be running at 2400, i wanted to use the xmp but its not stable so......
if i want to switch it up to 2400 without the xmp is there anything i need to do? also is there any way i can test this without waiting for a crash halfway through doing something.
secondly if i wanted to put the xmp back on what settings do i need to look into to getting it stable as it obviously isn't with my current setup
lastly if i want to put my overclock back on i know my memory being on an xmp profile is going to affect the overclock stability what do i need to lookout for here?

p.s this is a cross post from the memory forum i posted a while back (if that's against the rules feel free to delete it as i wasn't sure)
