Just re: your "stuck with a slow processor" comment:
Marvel G200 works fine in my p3-800/100mhz in an ASUS CUBX board. No problems as you descibe.

Have you thought about knocking it back down to AGP1x?"Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind." -- Dr. Seuss

Nope, AGP 1x doesn't make a difference. The CPU is rated at 8x100 MHz so I don't fiddle with the voltages either. AS I said, only MMX applications are affected by the problem (directX, photoshop) so I assume the MMX unit in this particular CPU stops working reliably above a certain clock rate. I'll try a different CPU and/or RAM next week. I can't imagine it's the RAM. I develop software and spend the whole day behind this PC without a single crash...
