Does my mother board supports 8gb ddr3 ram ? Its the asus p7p55d.

I had 4 gb(2x2 1600mhz) and replaced it with 8gb (4x2 1333mhz) , and my pc is now stucking at windows 7 boot screen , a bluescreen for 2 seconds and it reboots again. I installed the ram exactly as the 4gb i had.

What is causing this ?

*Hyper DIMM support is subject to the physical characteristics of individual CPUs. Some hyper DIMMs only support one DIMM per channel.

What is causing this ?

Bad RAM module or loosy contact

Power off
Reconect
Power ON
Run Memtest86+ for 100% - 1 pass atleast 2-3 advised
If you have no issues - red errors then you can go for OS boot

P.S. - some times if the OS is under BAD RAM + blue screen you have to reinstall - in rear cases but it happens ....
