I am considering upgrading to 8 gig of RAM and have been looking at the same RAM for my system. I have been reading user reviews and found several reports that 4 sticks of RAM sometimes give problems even if the RAM itself is OK. The reviews indicate that the faster the ram timing, the more finicky the RAM is. That would seem to suggest that you pull the RAM, and reinstall 1 at time to see if the system is stable with 1 or a pair, etc.

With 4 sticks of 1gig corsair RAM with slower timing than yours in one of my systems I had to swap the sticks around until I got a combination to work with no BSOD. I have had no trouble since. This of course involves some fiddling, but I have found this to be a situation with some motherboards.
