Boot the machine into the System Diagnositcs and then run the memory test.  Sounds like you may have a faulty dimm module.  This has happened to me before..  Each time I run the test and it tells me which dimm is bad.  If its under warranty Dell will normally send you two new dimms for it if they are a pair.
