RAM problem

[Jason]

I just installed a 512 meg ram piece and my computer has
since gone haywire. THe games I play load up then cause
the computer to reboot. I have 768 megs total. Any help
would be appreciated. THanks.

Try the 512 stick by its self. Many times mixing memory won't work properly.

right click My Computer and see if all the RAM is recognized on that page..
I had a mismatched memory stick problem and just swapped the stick for
another brand and , as the man said, (Steve) that will probably solve your
problem......

Also, some mobo require RAM to be in certain slots, often
the largest RAM must be in the first slot.
