Have you tried beating your system hard with something like Cerberus
(search google with key words "cerberus" and "ctcs") with the system
running in text mode? Cerberus was the only program to reliably report
memory failures on my new box half a year ago. All the others (including
memtest86) showed no errors, but still I had occasionally lockups and
programs crashing. A new memory module fixed everything.
