What brand/spec of RAM are you using? If you're using 2 256's, try pulling
one and then the other to see if you can isolate something.

"Now the game is clear, there is no longer any possibility of an alliance
with the Anglo-Saxons. We can see the next war panning out- Europe against
America. We'll be reconciled with the Fritzes. We will be a very strong
alliance...When I am in power, I shall ask Russia for time to reorganize
after the war without her intervention.. .I shall then have accomplished
what Hitler failed to do- become the master of Europe."
Charles DeGaulle, 1943.

Download and run memtest86 from www.memetest86.com - follow the intructions
there. You should get no errors whatsoever. Minimum of say 5 extended runs =
good test.
If you get any errors, post back and follow up - your system will not be
stable.

Hi I've used memtest and ran it for 7.5 hr it had done 19 passes with no
errors.
I've never come across this before and am totally baffled
