As a result only certain 1066MHz memory kits will run at 1066MHz.The maximum voltage for wich was on the sticks was 2.4 or something like that. Even tough its on auto the bios doesnt show you. If you click the option you can chose from diff voltages.

What is the maximum voltage for the memory?
What is the voltage currently set to (I know it's set to auto but you should still be able to check what voltage auto has set it to)?
Is the BIOS up to date?
It seems like you're not giving enough voltage to the memory, NB, or both which is causing the instability. Normally DDR2 ram needs at least 2.1v to remain stable at 1066MHz. Some really good kits can pull it off with 2.0, 1.9, or even 1.8v. Lower quality ram may need up to 2.3 or 2.4v, if it's even capable of it (and at those voltages usually you'll either end up frying the ram or frying the NB). Be careful though. Push the voltage too far past the chips listed limit and you'll end up with dead ram, or worse, a dead motherboard.
would 2.0 be a safe start? I'll change the timings again from auto and give voltage to it step by step from 2.0 and we'll see.
