Actually, I figured it out, it was kind of odd.

The Abit KG-7 RAID mainboard supports ECC memory, which I was using. One of the memory modules was failing, but the ECC was keeping it working reliably...turn off ECC, and everything goes wonky.

When I went to my ASUS A7V8X mainboard, being a KT400 chipset instead of AMD's 760, it didn't support ECC RAM, and so it ran my DDR modules, but with ECC off. Instant problems. I called Crucial and got the offending module replaced, and everything is now fine. Was truly a pain in the rear to figure out though.
