    My computer had the same problem. My dad brought it to work, Microsoft, and had a techy friend look at it. He fixed it, here is his response:



    "

    I found that if I changed the DDR voltage in the bios from “auto” to “2.0v” the system works like a champ. Curiously the memory is listed as 2.1v on the vendor site, but actually setting it to that would cause hangs and various crashes. From digging around a little it seems more than a few people are having issues with the combination of that Asus motherboard and OCZ memory.

     

    As near as I can tell you should have no problems installing and running now. I’d just leave it with the voltage manually set to 2.0v and run with it.

    (oh, and leave AHCI turned off…we know for sure that would cause some issues with that chipset)"

    My friend had a similar problem with his intel board and OCZ ram, however the intel board wouldnt let him adjust the ram so he got new ram instead.
