I've replaced the memory because it looked like a mem fault
If you believe that to be the case, run memtest86 (installable from
extras). It'll pick up memory and related problems (e.g. motherboard
might have other issues).
Thanks for this Tim. I've done as you suggested, and I did get some
errors, which I'm looking into. I've got some more memory to try, but
I've already changed it once.
I've also looked into lm_sensors, and if I understand the output below,
I've got a power supply problem - which may be the cause of the memory
faults.
It also looks like I've got a CPU that's running at below freezing.
Anyone got any comments on this output. Anything I need to sort out, or
have missed?

I'd get a DVM and/or oscilloscope on the power supply lines going to the
MB- just to verify that the sensors are a little bit messed up...

Great! You've somehow figured out how to reverse normal thermal flow!
Maybe the CPU is plugged in backwards... ;)

Seriously, I'd double-check the voltages in there, don't believe what
the sensors are telling you.. like has been said elsewhere, check the
BIOS settings as well.
