To me, looks like the memory may be faulty. go to www.memtest86.com and download Memtest. Grab a floppy or CD and test the memory.

No, 64-bit can handle 32-bit operating. I think the only CPU that can't is the Itanium CPUs, I think

Yes a 754 Sempron 64 3000 is 1.8ghz.. I just sold a 754 DFI system with a Sempron 64 2800. Got the 2800 because it has 256k of L2. But is shows up as just a Sempron in the control panel. As long as the model number ends in BX its 64 bit!
