My setup:
MSI 975X PowerUp Edition
Core 2 Duo E6400
Crucial Technology Ballistix BL2KIT6464AA804 1GB Kit DDR2-800 PC2-6400
ATI 1600XT 256MB
2x250 SATA II HDDs
2 DVD burners
Vista RC2




My problem is this. My system randomly gets the BSoD but generally it happens when clicking on my name to log into Vista. It also may just crash as it?s loading the login screen. But also, I sometimes have to turn it off and on 3 or 4 times to even get it to POST/

Any ideas? I also did, for a week, have some Kingston RAM that is ceritifed by MSI to work for this board but it had the same issue.

maybe its Vista try XP if you have it.
Another thought is run mem86 to confirm ram is good.
