Your BIOS should disable ECC if your RAM doesn't support it, but meh. If you suspect bad RAM, you can search Microsoft's site for their Memory Tester (can't remember the exact name). Free and it works.

You were getting hard reboots, but with no Blue Screen of Death (BSOD)? Is so, go into your System Properties, Advanced, and UNcheck the "Automatically Reboot" option. That will allow you to see the BSOD error before it reboots.

Check your network adapter drivers though too. Not often, but that can sometimes make a huge performance difference.
