Cannot run ram at specified voltage

[Bladestorm]

I recently finished building a mATX system using a Biostar TForce 7050-M2 motherboard 2 x 1gb of Patriot PDC22G6400LLK ram. After what took way to long to stuff into a Thermaltake Lanbox, which I DO NOT recommend purchasing, it boot up just fine. I installed WinXP, updated the BIOS, and installed all necessary drivers. Once everything seemed stable, I went into the BIOS to make a few changes. My Ram is supposed to run at 2.2v, but was set to 1.95v. If anybody has used this board, you'll know all the timings are in a spot in the BIOS called Overclock settings, or something like that. Now I'm new to OC'ing, but noticed Biostar had three levels of auto OC'ing. Before I set my ram to 2.2v, I set auto OC'ing to the first level. "V6" I believe it was called? I saved the changes, and reboot. I went straight to the Biostar splash screen, and stayed there. I couldn't use my keyboard at all either. I reboot numerous times after, and the same thing happened every time. Finally I gave up, cleared the CMOS. It boot to Windows just fine after that.

I guess my question is why can I not run the ram at 2.2v?

Thanks

well that microATX mobo is not designed for overclocking, just plain basic stuff. Not all the mobos out there allow you to change voltages, that mobo rely solely on the SPD to check the RAM specs. If u plan to overclock forget about the factory preset overclocking settings they are crap, just do it manually. check the overclocking forum for more info.
