Next thing to do is swap the RAM in my Athlon 3200 system (thank God I haven't sold that system yet!) for the RAM in this one then run it through some heavy duty benchmarks etc.
If it's fine then it's the RAM, if not it's the mobo - I'm assuming it's the mobo at this point...

If it does turn out to be the mobo I'm going for an ABit NForce 3 - different mobo brand, different chipset.
I'm aiming for an Nforce 3 (hopefully means I won't have to reinstall XP when I swap from NF2), The only S939 one I've found so far though is a Gigabyte K8NSNXP-939, and I'm not struck on the performance of GB boards.
