Lockups with new memory



I just bumped my Dell 5150 laptop from 512m (2x256) to 1gig (1x).  ANd
three separate times I got spontaneous lockups (no keyboard or mouse,
hard power down required).  

I've put back the 2x256 for now.  What are the odds it's a linux config
thing?  Im gonna add mem=1024m to lilo but I dont have faith that's it. 
Should I assume it's just a bad dimm?
