XP just supports 4 gigs of RAM.



Your going to need to go and get 2003 Advanced Server or Enterprise Edition to support 8 gigs.
I admit I've never see this before. If it be my PC I would proceed as follows.



1. Shutdown, unplug, and open the shield. Reseat all of the memory into the motherboard. Plug within and reboot. Check to see if anything changed.



2. Interrupt the POST to bring up the BIOS screen (usually by pressing DEL or F1 during boot, but vary by PC). Check the RAM settings for such things as CAS delays. The auto-detect should hold worked for modern RAM. First try restoring factory defaults. Then try slowing things down a bit (introducing suspension cycles).



3. Install a different operating system better suited to servers (Windows 2003 or even a Unix flavor). See if the problem remains.



4. Depending upon available parts, swap out memory, motherboard, and even boot disk (with new OS) to see which one fixes the problem. Restore adjectives the original parts, except for replacing the one that be the culprit.



Good luck!
