Corsair XMS2-8500 memory and Asus Striker Extreme

[k72j81]

I just purchased a new Asus Striker Extreme mobo with Corsair XMS2-8500 2x2048 and Asus EN8800GTS/HTDP/640M video card. I'm new so I need a lot of help! I don't know what I need to set/configure in the BIOS to get this system going so that it won't crash with the death blue screen. I can't even get it to install Windows. Anyone out there who knows how to do it, please help me.

These are the specs of my system:

Intell E6700 2.66G 775 4M
Memory 1Gx2 Corsair 240P Twin2x2048-8500C5
Seagate 500GB 16M SATA2
Asus EN8800GTS/HTDP/640M
Asus Striker Extreme 680i 775 Motherbaord

Thanks for all your help!

Boot into the bios and set the timings as listed in this PDF below. Also, set the RAM voltage to 2.2v.

I'm a newbie to this so you'll need to guide me with more detail cause the Striker Extreme has lots of new features in the BIOS and I want to make sure where I need to set/configure correctly in the BIOS. I've got the same diagram like that that came with the memory module also.
