Here's an interesting one to try. Have you tried REMOVING the old stick of ram? As stupid as it sounds, all of my Linux lockups I've ever had have been caused by bad, malfunctioning, mismatched, or mistyped RAM. Also, this might be a little more involving, but can you try another videocard, or another (possibly newer) release of XFree? Just a few ideas..
