Since I figured out why this behavior is occuring, I will answer it myself; the main problem was that the inside of my computer was getting too hot, consequently causing instability. I noticed this when I discovered that the computer worked fine when I moved it downstairs. But when I moved it to a confined area upstairs, it started behaving erratic but when I kept the sides open, it worked fine. It turns out this clearly was the problem, as I have not had any problems since I have kept the sides open.

Allthough, this motherboard defintely does not liked mismatched memory; particularly when it goes beyond 512mb. Because even when I had the same memory Micron 2100 DDR, it would cause the blue screen to appear when I had a 512mb, 256mb and 126mb installed. But it seemed to work fine when I only had the 256mb and 128mb installed. But not when I would have unmatched speeds.I want to emphasize that I was still having the problem of the internet dropping when I had the proper matched pairs. Actually, right now I decided to buy a 512mb micron 2100 stick. That is why I say that the overheating was the main problem in the end.
