I recently bought a new computer and whenever I boot windows up I loads for 2 seconds. flashes a blue screen and reboots. Does it every time. I tried messing around with some of the hardware and came to a conclusion that it was my ram; just the ram is fine, but not with my PC. I have 2 gigs of duel channel ram, so I put in a 1 gig stick to see what would happen, It boots up fine! I then test the duel channel ram on my other PC and it works fine on there! So my question is, what could be causing my duel channel ram not to work with my computer?
Here are my specs:
Ram - Newegg.com - G.SKILL 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory - Desktop Memory
CPU -
Newegg.com - AMD Athlon 64 X2 5800+ Brisbane 3.0GHz 2 x 512KB L2 Cache Socket AM2 89W Dual-Core Processor - Processors - Desktops

I have a 400W PSU.
My friend is having the EXACT same problem;

I just upgraded my CPU from an AMD 4400+ to an AMD 6400+. The only thing I did was switch out the CPU. I have 2 gigs of duel channel ram, and when I boot my computer up it loads to windows XP then it flashs a blue screen and my computer reboots. So i decided to swap some ram around thinking it might be bad, I then put in a 1 gig stick of DDR2 ram and it worked. But the thing is the ram I have isn't bad, I put it in my other computer and it works fine. I have a 680W PSU, so I doubt that is the problem.
Here is the parts I'm working with:
