Have you ran the memory diagnostics program? The fact the bios only "sees" 800 may indicate you have a dimm damaged. If you haven't already I would download the blue screen viewer (Google) and it will tell you instantly what drivers caused the BSODs. Sorry I can't help with the timing.Best regards,Jim
