Problems with Crucial DDR

[JBT]

I have a mother board that can have DDR and SD memory you just have to change some jumperto switch between types my system originally came with pc133 256 sdram thne i ordered some 256 pc2100 ddr from crucial. then i noticed i would get more BSOD's they were actually memory dumps and then i woulld have to restart this would happen when i started certain programs such as my cd burning software or when iwould just serf the net. I was thinking maybe I got bad ram so i put the old SD ram back in and it was working fine after that. I was wondering if it was bad ram or if i was installing it wrong. My mother board's book siad I just have to change the voltage type and then change the ram selector jumpers. So if it bad ram do i just call crucial and tell them? I was also wondering if there is a program that tests to see if you are using bad ram? thx for any help anyone can give me

JB can you be more specific about your mobo (your rig link doesn't say maker)? What kind of settings did you change/check in the BIOS when you installed the DDR? I've bought plenty of RAM from Crucial and they have good service; I don't think you'll have a problem getting it exchanged.
