I would suggest http://www.memtest86.com I had some bad memory on a machine that drove me nuts for several months. I would suggest letting it run through the entire default set of tests. My problem did not show up until test 6 or 7. Since I discovered this I run it religiously on any new machine or one that I have changed the memory on. -Carlos PS.
