this error is quite often caused by faulty RAM, but as you've tried differend RAM (assuming you tried making sure the ram was seated correctly) i, as you did, suspect the mobo, just for the sake of it try testing your RAM with
memtest86+ (download & run it from either floppy or CD for about 12 hours or longer, ignore the results unless you get 200+ errors)

possibly, also try the barebone approach, by disconnecting eveything from the mobo except CPU, RAM, Grfx card & PSU

flashing the BIOS should
only be done as a last resort, or if you
know that flashing it to a certain version will fix your problem
