The new memory may be flaky. Did you take precautions
against electrostatic discharge? Try removing the original
128MB and running the new module by itself. If it "installs"
(I don't know quite what you mean here), Download
Memtest86+ from
http://www.memtest.org and run it for
a few cycles to test the new module.
If the new module checks out OK, then it's probably
incompatible with your original module. You could
download the free Home Edition of Everest from
http://www.lavalys.com/products.php?lang=en
to find out: Run Everest, expand "Motherboard", and
click on "SPD".
