Forum Overclocking : Chipsets & Bios Hyper x slow with win 7

Word :    Username :           
 

Hello, community. I have a problem with my Hyper X module 4GB/2 in a DP965LT Intel Motherboard with windows 7 64bits installed. The problem I'm having is that anytime I have the hyper x placed in the motherboard, it gets really slow and the system takes a long time to start-up. I though it was the memory the first time, so I got new ones and installed again, and again the same problem. However, this problem did not occurred when I had install a normal DDR2 memory of two gigs. When I have win XP installed with the hyper X, I did not have any trouble. Have you heard about this issue? any comments or help you can bring me?
I will appreciatte it

maybe windows 7 needs a fresh install to correctly identify your ram

I would check your memory in your bios to make sure its being read correctly, I have 12GB Kingston Hyper X@1600 and it works perfect on Win7.
