No pentiums available here, always used AMD but never had any trouble, then again I've never made such a detailed model before

Get that, run the stress testing for a couple of hours if u can.
If it crashes there are hardware problems.

Just spoken to someone in the know, and he's told me that it could be a problem with XP... apprently it's known for XP to load up the memory, then not release it again, which would explain why i can render once or twice, then it'll crash, then be fine again for a minute when I restart.
Run memtest earlier and no errors present.

Acelogix Free Ram Optimiser
Might not be the best, but it's working, and it's free, which is all I need....
