Did anyone had the same issues? Could anyone recommend a program that stresses hardware and test stability for Mac?

im not sure but 4Gigs memory might be the problem. Go BIOS and disable memory hole remapping.
Damn I use both Vista x64 with swap disabled and Mac OS X. It would be very annoying to switch bios every time :'(
Add this kernel flag to your boot.plist to force 3GB:
maxmem=3072
