Similar situation:
When I use fglrx with default configuration it blanks the screen and hard locks 
the system (VTs and network die). I have to disable AIGLX, Composite, 
Accleration and DRI for it to work at all. If I change VTs it crashes.

I don't have a BIOS option for Memory Re-Mapping so I can't test turning
it on/off. I haven't yet tried removing/replacing a RAM stick.

Hardware:
Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 (45nm, 3.0GHz)
2x2GB = 4GB DDR2-800 Kingston
Gigabyte EP35-SD3R motherboard
Sapphire ATI Radeon HD 2400 PRO

For the open-source radeonhd driver which sort-of works I got the
same/similar message as my current fglrx setup in the Xorg log:

(WW) fglrx(0): Failed to set up write-combining range
(0xd0000000,0x10000000)

I'm using fglrx from the ubuntu restricted drivers package:
