Post-Upgrade issues

I upgraded the RAM in my HP a810n PC from 1 x 512 PC3200 DDR SDRAM to 1.5 GB (keeping that 512 stick and adding a 1GB stick). I used crucial.com to help me find a compatible stick. It may be worth noting that the computer uses integrated graphics (doesn't have its own video card) so the memory appears a bit less than it is (384mb when I had the 512 only, 1.37GB now).

After the upgrade, I can notice a great speed upgrade. However, the computer has crashed and automatically restarted a couple times. I was able to extract this from the crash window when it restarted.

Code:
BCCode : 24     BCP1 : 001902FE     BCP2 : BAD0B9D4     BCP3 : BAD0B6D0     
BCP4 : 805298D5     OSVer : 5_1_2600     SP : 3_0     Product : 768_1    


C:\DOCUME~1\HP_Owner\LOCALS~1\Temp\WERf603.dir00\Mini022710-02.dmp
C:\DOCUME~1\HP_Owner\LOCALS~1\Temp\WERf603.dir00\sysdata.xml

Also, programs like Firefox 3.6 and Ccleaner are crashing. Any help???
 
Did you try the 1gb. stick by itself first to see if it had problems. Plus using two different brands at different size/timing and voltage could be causing you problems. Dont know what kind of bios options you have on that board but you could try to find a compromise between the two.
 
Didn't get a chance to do the memtest yet.

I ran my PC doctor program with both sticks in it and it failed both the pattern tests. Then I tried it with only the new 1gb stick and the tests passed fine.

However, the computer still is crashing/automatically restarting occasionally, and the error report cites those same 2 files I have in the code in the first post.
 
Also don't know if this helps but here is some info on my system with the new 1GB stick in without the origional 512 (which is causing the computer to still frequently crash).

Also, the 1GB stick I bought from the crucial scan is a 1GB 184-PIN UNBUFF DIMM 128MX64 DDR PC3200 Pb-Free
