Memory question

I'm running XP SP2. On my older PC, I added 256mb of memory to bring the
total to 512mb. Everything runs fine except when the power option has
powered off the monitor. Upon resumption, the monitor will refresh, but the
system will respond badly - screen will refresh and go blank or the next
application that is run will have problems with display. Last night when my
scheduled spyware scan program ran, it would have run while the monitor was
off and it aborted with a critical error reported by the operating system.
At all other times the system runs without incident. I would like to
continue using the memory and am willing to just turn off the power option
on the monitor if that fixes the problem. Are these symptoms an indicator
of some other problem such as an operating system setting or should I just
uninstall the memory? This seems like an obvious question, but I'd like to
explore options other than just writing-off the memory. Thanks for your
help.
