I've seen similar problems happen on a groups of new boxes when the ram was 
slightly out  of spec for the motherboard.  memtest revealed the problem, 
returning the lot of ram for a different model fixed the problem.

This would indicate that I am wrong.   Personally, I'd still run memtest86 for
48 hours or so, just to be sure.  


does smartctl report weirdness?
