Would this be, as i suspect(only a theory really), a problem with my memory, or is it something else, perhaps even operating system related? any help from some of the more knowledgeable among you would be greatly appreciated. thanks. let me know what other info you might need also.

What brand of motherboard do you have? I had an 2 Epox boards that did that. The later of the two stopped doing it after I flashed to the latest bios, fomatted the hd, and reinstalled everything.
