I forgot to mention I have an Athlon XP 2600+ on a Asus A7N8X-X Mobo.

Clock control can easily cause such issues. Try to set a different starting frequency in BIOS. It's a matter of testing. On my PC I can easily go from 112 to 166 MHz, but I had to find the most reliable setting in BIOS.

Thanks for the reply! I changed my memory clock (was on 120% (200MHz)) to 166MHz (same as fsb) and I don't have the problem any more. I'm now running at 110MHz and it works flawlessly.
