The SiS 735 chipset, which is in the K7S5A, is suspected of having some problems in the memory subsystem. In addition to updating your sound and video drivers, also make sure you have the latest bios from ECS. Also check the sis website, in case there is something relevant there.
To check your memory subsystem, download and run the program memtest86 from this URL:

Check out one of the good forums on the web regarding the K7S5A; Anandtech will probably have lots of posts regarding that board.
