Firstly, I hope you're not overclocking this board, or anything else
stupid like that.

Have you had a previous release up and running on this particular unit?
The problems you're describing are classic memory/cache fault symptoms,
so I would be more inclined to be pursuing some RAM for a quick swap,
preferably something of a different brand.
