I like Puppy linux as a place to start. Probably Wary.
Yes, I have used Puppy in the past - it is worth a shot since I am
getting desperate . .
The other thing (which might just have been coincidence) is that when I
booted on the USB for the LiveCD, it did seem to stay up without any
problems - but the PC was not in that state for long periods of time so
I might just have been lucky at those times . .
Thanks,
Phil.

They could be. memtest86+ to find out. Another possibility is they're
the
wrong SIMMs for the hardware, i.e. wrong timing or voltage. There
might be
BIOS settings for adjusting this.
