I still think it can be related to leaky video drivers. Could you swap
the video card (i.e. not integrated in the motherboard)? Do you have
other machines with the same graphics card and the same software that
don't experience the bug?

At any rate, since the system has far too much cache in RAM than it
should, it can't be a hardware bug, only a hardware-related software
bug.


Hope this helps
