Hey guys,
I wasn't sure where to post this.

For the past year, I've used 4 gigs of G.Skill CL5D memory in my system and everything has worked great. Today, I tried upgrading to 6gb by adding an additional 2gb of identical memory.
After some BIOS tweaking i can get the machine to boot normally. However, Windows seems to have an issue with the video. The video resolution sets itself to the lowest setting and the video driver fails to load. Occasionally, Windows will lock-up at this point.
Ive upgraded my BIOS to the most recent version. I've upgraded my video drivers to the most recent version
