Yeah, that is what I'm thinking.

Some kind of RAM conflict, or something.

What kind of RAM is the first stick, and the second? Also do you have an Intel, or AMD system. ASUS, MSI, Gigabyte, nVidia, or Intel, or antoher motherboard?

I notice you said you have PC130, would that be PC133 SDRAM? Or PC1300 DDR?
Either way, it doesn't sound to familiar to me, and I suspect that may be the problem.

I suggest you remove the DDR memory, and place it in a static shield bag, and keep it stored dry, at room temperature.

The other option is to sell all your memory, and get two 512mb sticks of DDR.

Either choose SDRAM, or DDR, not both.
