I recently added two more sticks of 256mb RAM to my computer, in addition to the two 256mb sticks already there. The first time I started it back up it beeped twice, told me there was a memory error and asked if I wanted to continue. I did, it froze, I restarted and it went fine after, didn't even beep twice.

Just to make sure though, I ran PC-Doctor for windows, on the memory it passed every test BUT when I tried the system test I got blue screen errored, something thats never happened before on this computer (I have had a problem with the disk drive though, and thats the portion of the test it blue screens on). Any clue on what I can do?

I dont remember how to post the info on the blue screen errors, if someone wants to remind me Ill do so....
