Well I am up and running but so far not thrilled. Not sure if I have a RAM or MB prob.

Anytime I take the RAM off of AUTO settings it crashes and won't boot into Vista 64.

The RAM is supposedly rated at 1600Mhz 7-6-6-18 OCZ platinum

but I can't get it to boot Vista at all at anything other than "auto" settings on the MB, which sets the RAM to 1066Mhz .

I set it to 1600Mhz 9-8-8-24 and 1.75V and it will barely post, and won't boot Vista.

Actually anytime I take the RAM off auto it just crashes.

More tweaking is obviously needed. First time to use 8GB so the quantity involved may be having an effect. Think I am going to just leave one stick in there and see what happens.
