Hi,
	I have system containing an ASRock M3A785GXH/128M AM3 AMD 785G 
HDMI ATX AMD Motherboard, which freezes about once a week. The memory 
passes memtest. The mb is under manufacturer's warantee but I would 
rather not rma it due to the delay involved. The advice I get from the 
manufacturer's support is to update the bios with the memory removed. 
Which I can probably accomplish. In addition I am supposed to:

Insert 1 memory module only with proper dram voltage that require with 
ram, (DRAM voltage)

Adjust the DRAM freq as well, save and exit out the bios.

Go back into the bios again, and make sure the 1st memory is being proper 
detect under the bios. If it does, then install the 2nd memory module.

·         Repeat the same steps above, until you have all  memory 
install. If for some reason you still not able to get the all ram detect 
properly. Please do let us know we glad to swap the board for you. Thank 
you.

·         You can leave the memory timing on auto (press F9) load default 
setting from Bios.

I am in over my head here. There are directions available for updating 
the bios but I haven't figured out how to adjust the dram voltage (there 
are directions for overclocking but I can't find anything in the bios 
about memory voltage) and I don't know what the memory frequency should 
be (it is ddr3 1600).
	Any ideas would be appreciated, jwc
