Hello. I have upgraded my PC with one more ram memory module with 1 gigabytes on it. Now I have two gigs. I have chosen Kingston. But, I have noticed that my PC is performing sudden restarts when I am into something inside the windows. Thats followed by the blue screen with the memory dump message below. This wasnt happening when I had only one module before. Is this because of bad ram memory module?

It is hard to say, but it could be. Very unusual for Kingston because they really have high compatibility ram modules that work fine with the most of other brands together. If your new memory is the same as the old one, than replace the Ram module for the non-fault. Because it might happen that you bought damaged RAM memory. But, if you have two different brands inside your PC, than enter your BIOS and set all options to AUTO, regarding latency and speed. If you suffer no more sudden restarts after changing the BIOS settings, than there is a difference in latency timings between modules.
