You can try to decrease the ram speed, e.g. if it's at DDR400 bring it down to DDR333, or just try to ease off on the ram timmings, if you have it at CAS2-2-2-6 change it to CAS2.5-3-3-7 That could help.

I had this exact problem.
Slowed the RAM, works fine.
I could have returned it, but I was like F that its fast enough for now, and I want to install.
My previous systems RAID crapped out, and I decided it was time to upgrade.
