run memtest86 and make sure the memory you added is not corrupt.

Most likely, it's not the fact that WindowsXP doesn't like the added RAM. Check to see if your new stick is bad (using MemTest86 or some other similar diagnostic tool). Also, try running your DIMMs by SPD and see if that stablizes everything.
