Ok, AMD chips are known to have power issues (is they require a lot of it)
Older power supplies can have problems dealing with the sudden jolt of booting the processor AND running through the memory like crazy.

I think this explanation sounds a little bogus, but it was given to me together with the 'quick memory' solution. And it completely solved my AMD K6-450 problems which sound a lot like yours.

Good luck!
