Could just be bad memory.  I have a Knoppix Linux boot CD that lets you run a 
memory test (type memtest at the boot prompt).  Or for that matter, boot Linux 
off the CD (just hit enter at the boot prompt) for a more extensive test of 
computer functionality.

You can download a CD from http://www.knoppix.org/ or a DVD if you want the 
whole works.  But the DVD version requires a DVD drive and the download is more 
complex since it's 4 gigabytes, too big for some download tools.
