I personally believe this is a problem with a lot of the 775 ASUS boards.
Difficult (or perhaps impossible to prove), but I swear some settings which are [AUTO] do not remain consistent after a COLD boot.

I.e. you input settings, stability test, fail, reboot, change settings, stability test, fail, reboot, change settings some more, stability test... and then everything checks out fine.
20x Linx
Hiper Pi
3dmark Vantage Loop.
3dmark 06 loop.

And then play a game for a bit, etc. Turn off PC at the end of the day.

Boot the next day, instant BSOD System Service exception or Stop Error.

POWER OFF PC (i.e NOT reboot), then power on and things are fine.
However if you reboot (reset or a quick power off and on) BSODs continue

I have had this happen on two ASUS boards, P5E3 and Rampage Extreme. It appears you are having a similar issue too.

Sadly nobody can prove this as it is so difficult to pin down.
