Darren,
(PS. Am I breaking any etiquette rules by top-posting?)
Probably... But on to the important stuff.
Try removing some of your memory. Maybe back it down to 512MB.
Possibly rearranging/reseating the SIMMs might also help.
Also, memtest on the rescue CD, may shed some light, if there is a
memory problem. From what I've seen on the list memtest should be run
for a long time if no immediate problems are detected.
