Hi,
received my new 8GB kingston DDR2 1066mhz hyperx KHX8500D2K2 & after installing the 4x2gb sticks my mobo will only recognize them as DDR2 800 !! i have increased the voltage to 2.1 & 2.2 but still nothing changed.any idea how i can get the mobo to recognize the ram as DDR2 1066mhz ? thanks

You'll most likely have to set them manually to that speed in the BIOS (on my board it does it even on the Auto setting, but sometimes the RAM is set to a specific divider - and if you're running your Q6600 at 400Mhz bus, then the RAM is most likely tied at 400Mhz too - to make 800Mhz DDR)

I believe you'll find them in X:\Windows\Minidump .. but if I recall correctly, there's also a few files in your userprofile\local\temp directory too.

There is a small chance that an updated BIOS would correctly recognize your memory and set them automatically+correctly.

dont know your m/b bios but usually its the cpu/memory multiplier/divider that you'll need to change to get it to run at 1066 when your on a 400 fsb. its probably at 2x when you'll need it at 2.66x
when you o/c to 450/8 its still seeing it as o/c'd 400 and reports it as ddr2 800, try running cpu-z and seeing what it reports the actual frequency is.
i would try 380x9 but with the fsb/mem multiplier at 2.66x giving you memory at 1010mhz (will be reported as ddr2 1066) rather than 760 (@380x9) or 900(@450x8) that your getting at the moment
