First I would try this, if you believe that your hard drive is to new
[b] yum update kernel\* [/b]

Looking at the very first line of the OP's post concerns me.

The system is supposed to be a 64-bit version of [i]CentOS 5[/i] (at [i]update 2[/i] level), yet the kernel referenced is one from [i]CentOS 4[/i]. Not a good idea -- you cannot boot a [i]CentOS 5[/i] system with a [i]CentOS 4[/i] kernel.

This thread has now been moved to CentOS-4.

When you suspect that you are having issues with the system RAM, the first step is usually to boot the [i]standalone[/i] version of [i]memtest86+[/i] and let it run overnight.

However you have done the next best thing and replaced the system RAM, resolving the issue. :-D
