Something to check,

The last machine that I had which experienced random "out of memory"
errors and lockups had bad capacitors on the motherboard.  Once I
replaced them the problems went away.

Have a look - any bulging or burst capacitors on the motherboard (or in
the power supply for that matter), replace them.  Especially if this is
older hardware.
