have:

Abit AS8 LGA775
3.2 prescott
pc3200 1GB OCZ 512mbx2
300W PSU
2 HD
1 DVD-RW

with all that would my 300W power supply not let me use my memory.. i can't use the dual channel fuction or use them in slots 1 and 2 because my hard drives don't show up in the IDE check.. but when i put in my old PC2100 256mb everything works fine

Award gives me C5 post code (call chipset hook to copy BIOS back to E000 & F000 shadow RAM) everytime i try the dual channel or putting the OCZ side by side.. so i was wondering if the RAM wasn't compatible or it was something else

here is a pic of voltage:

yea u should get a new one, that thing might not be accurate but 10.45 on the 12v line is bad.

and what kind of processor do you have, 1.3v on the vcore!?
 
Yes, get a new PSU.

Might I suggest an Enermax? I think they make some specifically for the Prescott line too, but I'll have to look into that in more detail.
