Never try to teach a hog to sing. It frustrates you and aggravates the hog.

If OCing, then RAM can easily become unstable. Google for Memtest86, follow all the instructions for installing and running the test. You may be surprised at the results.
If you find you're going 'round in circles, perhaps you're cutting corners.
