.. Don't rule out hardware yet.
Are you using aggressive memory timing? (Gigabyte calls it Optimal
performance.).
Try lowing it to normal.

You memory modules may be over-heating.
(I had the same problem on a couple of GA-7VAXPs running Windows 2K/XP
and Linux).

Second... you can change the AGP driver being used by the nvidia driver.
(It's an option within the XF86Config.) Check the driver's README file.
If you need I can look it up for you.
