for months i have been getting blue screens on my computer and until just an hour ago i had no solution to this problem. for some reason i cannot have more than 1 of my 2 2 gb ram cards in the motherboard without bluescreens startup failures and just plain frustration. both cards work fine on their own without any trouble and both slots are fine but together it means trouble. anyone know anything about this particular problem or have any suggestions?

1) I would run memtest86+ overnight for at least 7 passes and see if you get any errors.

2) Have you tried switching RAM slots to see if get the same issues?

3) Is the RAM adjusted in your BIOS to the manufacturer's specs listed on each stick (voltage, timings & MHz)?
