Run Memtest86 on that RAM. I had the same prob. It was a bad stick of 2Gb. After replacing it's been running great ever since. In fact, my Ultimate 64 has been as reliable (so far) as my Linux Mint 6 workstation.

Did you install Vista while the PC was overclocked?
It's best to have everything at stock when installing Vista.
