David,
I used the memtest86 everyone has mentioned a few months ago
when I added 2 sticks of RAM. Didn't catch the problem after
letting it run for a day and a half.

Problem was the 2 SIMMs I installed were "batch" SIMMs and
weren't quite compatable. They were the cheapies from FRYES.

Yanked 'em out, took 'em back and picked up a couple of PNY
SIMMs and all was/is well.
