Try running a memory tester like memtest86. If it returns errors either the
memory or mobo are incapable of running at 400MHz, if not then its probably
a bad processor.
I recently saw exacly this behaviour from a 3200+ system and it turned out
to be a faulty Asus motherboard. It worked fine at lower FSBs, but randomly
barfed up its dinner at 400MHz.
