RAM not working (?)...

For the past week, I had problems with lag in the frame rate in MOH:AA. I was thinking something was wrong with my GF3. Then, for some reason, today I've been getting a pseudo blue screen of death whenever I even try to start up MOH:AA. It would tell me that there's a serious problem in my motherboard and it had to shut down. So then I figured maybe my CPU was unstable so I turned the FSB back down to 133 and rebooted. Same problem. So then I tried running Sisoft Sandra and I can run the CPU benchmark fine. But when I attempt to run the RAM benchmark, I get the blue screen of death again telling me I need to shut down. Now, I believe it to be the RAM, and I think the cause of all this is the program Tweak-XP, which I've been using to boost performance. I've attempted to reset the settings back to the original configuration, but I still can't seem to run the RAM benchmark. Can anyone help me out?:(

edit: If this helps, I'm running WinXP on an AMD 1.4g CPU w/512mb crucial RAM, Epox 8k7A+ mobo and Elsa Gladiac 920 GF3.

Are you running 2-256mb sticks of Ram or 1-512mb?
If your running 2 sticks, take one out and see if it will run then.
