There are plenty of other reasons to cause the symptom you're having.
1. BIOS settings
2. Memory error (Lower the CAS latency to 3 if it's at 2.5 or 2 now)
3. Processor overheat. Check fan bearing. The thing can get draggy and
slow the fan down.
4. You cracked the Athlon core somehow. (not too hard to do)
