Ok. Maybe I have to buy one of these beasts to find the root
cause of this.

It's quite an old board, I'd let you on mine and say go for your life 
but it's actually kind of mission critical (in so much as a home server 
can be).

Is there anything I can provide/do/run for you to give you a head start 
in the right direction?
The problem showed up when I upgraded from 1gb to 4gb of memory (the 
maximum the board can handle)
