Due to the High
Performance Memory design, motherboards or system configurations may or
may not operate smoothly at the JEDEC (Joint Electron Device Engineering
Council) standard settings (BIOS Default on the motherboard) such as
DDR2 voltage, memory speeds and memory timing. Please confirm and adjust
your memory setting in the BIOS accordingly for better system stability.
Example: Kingston HyperX DDR2-800 PC6400 operates at 2.0V,
4-4-4-12.
