Albatron woes! please help =)

Hello,

I have an Albatron PX915P4C Pro, a nVidia 7800 GT video card (made by BFG Tech), 1gig Corsair XMS3200 DDR SDRAM (400MHz), and 978 P4 3.2Ghz (200x16.0, CPU ID/UCOD:0F29/21).

Since I have upgraded to the video and motherboard I crash constantly while playing World of Warcraft or Battle Field 2.

I have run memory tests (memtest) which showed the RAM working properly, I have returned (RMA) both the video card and the motherboard for new ones and upgraded to 600 watt power supply. I have flashed the bios, it is now R1.37 and I am still getting these crashes. The CPU temperature and case temperature are fine, ~40c. I have Corsair 3200 RAM (2x512megs). I wonder if it is this causing the crashing. The bios states that the RAM is ?DDR SDRAM: 400MHz (Dual Channel Mode Enabled)? and I have the two DIMMs in each of the colored slots (both are in the purple slots with the green slot between them and to the right). Is there a problem with the motherboard?s bios or chipset with this memory?s speed or latency or dual channel mode? Perhaps even with the P4?s Hyperthreading? Is there something I can change in the bios to stop these crashes?
 
If this helps:
Each RAM stick says:

"CMX512 -- 3200LL
XMS3205v1.2 0329048
XMS 3200
512MB 400MHz
2326-T1"

Also in the Bios, the "DRAM Timing Seletable" is "BY SPD"
x CAS LAT TIME 2.5
x DRAM RAS# TO CAS# DELAY 3
x DRAM RAS# PRECHARGE 2
PRECHARGE 2 DEALY (tRAS) 6

The System Memory Freq is "Auto" and the DDR Volatge (VOLT) is "Default"

Does this help?
