MacBook freezes with 8GB 2x KVR1066D3S7 4G Kingston RAM Modules
2GHz A1278 MacBook Unibody 13"
MB 5,1 with Boot ROM Version: MB51.007D.B03 running OS 10.6.8 freezes with Kingston KVR1066D3S7/4G (2 modules) 8GB.
Is there any setting for max mem or bootrom version, or anything else that can prevent the freezing problem?
Is this a brand issue?
Ist dies eine gute Frage?

Thank you for answers!
Clearly the new RAM modules I got are incompatible with Macbooks. My MacBook indeed is Boot ROM Version MB51.007D.B03 and running on 10.6.8. I Tried all OS X Versions from 10.6 to 10.9.2 with the same modules (8GB installed), except the freezing problem (due to incompatibility) everything else looked OK. Actually it passed all hardware tests at a Apple service.
I should have checked the RAM modules before the purchase!
