Hey I just bought a stick of Kingston 512MB PC2700 ram to add to my stick of Samsung 256MB PC2700. Ever since installing i have been getting blue screens and random GPF's and shit like that. These only occur when i am playing a game or doing something intense like running bittorrent or using winamp5. I have messed with the placement of the sticks and changed the timings in the BIOS to "Auto" hoping that it would select more modest settings. Still no luck. I have ran the Microsoft memory tester on the ram with no errors. I currently have the 512 stick in slot 1 and the 256 in slot 3 (i have 4 slots total 1-4). Any ideas/solutions? Thanks for any help you may offer.

ATI Radeon 9800 Pro
300 Watt PS (If that possibly matters)
