Hi i am trying to get my system stable and have been having some trouble with it. Here are my specs if anyone has this motherboard and ram please let me know what your settings are at, and if you have been able to get it stable. I think alot of it is my ram timings and voltages. Just need help fine tuning.

Operating System = Xp Pro Sp2
Motherboard = MSI P6N SLI Platinum (MS-7350)
Ram = G Skill F2-6400PHU1-2GBHZ
Power Supply = Pc Power Cooling 510 Deluxe
Hard Drives = 2x Western Digital Raptor 150gb
Video Card = NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GTS 512mb G92
Cd Drives = 2x Samsung SH-S203B
Processor = Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600, 2400 MHz (9 x 267)
Heatsink = Zerotherm Nirvana 120mm

well first off if you are having stability problem try running memtest 86

http://www.memtest.org/

do this for at least 4 to 5 hrs or more

if that shows OK try setting your ram voltage to 2.1 and timings at 4-4-4-12

i have ran the memtest memory is good i have my voltage at 2.0 and timings are

5-5-5-15 (CL-RCD-RP-RAS) / 23-45-11-10-5-5 (RC-RFC-RRD-WR-WTR-RTP)

Just trying to get everything set good so i can try overclocking abit even though it's not gonna be a crazy overclock because i have the q6600 with the b3 stepping instead of the go which would of been nice.

if you are having stability problems set RC-RFC-RRD-WR-WTR-RTP back to auto
5-5-5-15 is very loose for DDR2 800 but if yuo are going to overclock get it stable and see how goes.
