i got that board on one of my pc's and it does this behavior when
overcloking the cpu to a rate that your memory can't support. IE: i
must set my pc to operate at 11.5X200 to get it to work properly
nothing under. I got a 2600@333 barton and it can go at 2.3gig with no
problem but at that speed i would have to get a new fan and heat
spreader.

Try to get in the bios and set every thing at stock speed. and see.
