I'm not that familiar with static memory. Your best bet is to run a memory test to determine if the failure is located in the memory module. If you do register an error, swap the modules into different slots and test again. If you return another error, there is a good chance you do have bad stick of memory. If you do not return an error on the second attempt, it is probably a bad socket, not the memory module; in which case you would need to replace the motherboard.

Another thing you want to avoid is "mix-n-match memory". Make sure that the memory installed in the system is nearly exactally the same. You said they are PC133, so make sure both are ECC or neither are ECC, make sure the brands match too - as some brands do not mix well with others. You will also want to check with your BIOS to make sure the voltage output to the modules are correct.

Lastly, if I am not mistaken, SRAM is an old(er) technology. That being the case, you may want to think about upgrading the system entirely.

PS- This is completely unrelated, but try out Opera instead of IE, you might like it...
