Seems like my comptuer is randomly freezing..

45 minutes of prime95 isn't long enough to really test stability, at least 12 hours. I would also run memtest overnight as well. More than likely you will get errors, and you will need to decrease your overclock until it becomes stable. Keep an eye on your temps as well, and is your video card being oc'd?
 
600MHz OC is pretty decent for a chip like that one. Have you tried downclocking, possibly back to stock, to see if the stability issues go away? Keep in mind too that the Via K8T800 chipsets don't have PCI/AGP lock, which is why most overclockers head towards NF3 boards. Snag a copy of CPUID (or CPUZ, whatever they call it now) and check thru the numbers that it gives ya. Sounds like the overclock may be pushing yer vid card of other PCI components too far.
 
The A8V DOES have an AGP/PCI lock.. maybe it's just not on?

(VIA's K8T800 Pro follows in the footsteps of its wildly popular K8T800 chipset, while increasing its repertoire by supporting socket 939 AMD Athlon64 and AthlonFX processors, as well as up to 4GB of regular unbuffered DDR PC3200 memory. When paired with the VIA VT8237 southbridge, standard onboard goodies consist of 7.1 channel audio, IEEE 1394, Gigabit LAN, Serial ATA RAID, not to mention a PCI/AGP lock and HyperTransport links at 1000MHz.)

Getting a lot of crashes in 3DMark03.
