Powerbooks are picky with memory.
I had lockups and kernel panics in OSX 10.5.8 until I replaced both memory chips with 2 new identical ones. It is a bad idea to mismatch memory.
What brand did you get, what models, where did you buy them from and do you remember how much they cost. I have been having some lockups with my 17-inch 1.67GHz G4 PowerBook so I removed the one 512mb dimm and use only the 1gb dimm in the other socket, but still have some problems with locking up are a rare kernel panic, so I want to just replace with two new 1gb dimms. I want to make sure I get the right model and a good brand that is known to have good record of working in G4 PowerBooks.
