In addition to the other great hardware suggestions, on the software side, that's a pretty old kernel version. There are a couple dozen OOM-related fixes in post RHEL 4.4 kernels. I'd recommend sending your sysreport to Red Hat support, so they can tell you the minimum kernel version to use. Or I'd recommend trying the latest RHEL 4 kernel (2.6.9-89). In a way it's good it locks up so often, because you'll know pretty quickly if the new kernel version helps. You know, glass half full and all.. ;)
