Please help me:
sorry if this is in a wrong section.

Just got another 2 more memory. did a memory test, both window memory diagnostic and memtest86+, all passed. did a hardware test, both error checking in the C drive properties and DOS sfc /scannow, all passed.

i decided to do a clean USB window7 ultimate x64 installation. Everything went great. Now i'm on the desktop, window does its 3 files update. Asked me to reboot, so i did. My pc just hang at the "shut down" status for like 30minutes. so i did a hard reboot. back to desktop, and i do a regular reboot.

i can't install anything. i can't even install drivers. i had to hard reboot then now i can install drivers. then i install itune. the status bar just stop at midway. i had to hard reboot then install again, and it works. window update kept fail to install. could it be the new memory causing this? Maybe i need to edit my cmos to JEDEC 5.0-5-5-18-24 @ 400 MHz since the first 2 memory are at JEDEC 5.0-5-5-15-21 @ 400 MHz????

below is my pc:
==================================================
My system:
Intel DG45ID - memory max 8gb (4 slot)
Core2 Quad Q6600 @2.40Ghz 2.39Ghz
8Gb (7.90Gb usage) - DDR2-800 PC-6400

Why reinstall at first? If I understand well, things started to go wrong after the updates.
Can you not just take the two sticks out to check if it's running fine without them? If you suspect hardware config problem, why post in the "software" forum?

i reinstall cuz my pc has a lot of junk.
not sure if a hardware or software issue. the reason i post here because after finishing installing a fresh win7, my pc crash after window update installed the first 3 files. if a hardware issue sorry i post in the wrong section. but what if i post in a hardware section and some1 said the same as you, y post in hardware when u think it's a software? then where am i gonna post for help?

does it make a different if i use both memory 5-5-5-15-21 and 5-5-5-18-24 in my MB or the window update cause the crash?

The timings should matter. The first three values are the most important. I think I'm running my home PC with two different speeds. Just make sure they are running at the frequency (the MHz) of the slowest. Since all of yours appear to be 400MHz I don't think you need to change that.

thanks. i exchange the memory and it works.
