I recently installed Windows Vista on a self-built computer that had been 
functioning perfectly for the last 3 years with Windows XP Home.  It was 
running kind of sluggish after I installed Vista, so I added (1) stick of 
256 MB PC2700 Ram. There were already (2) sticks in there giving it a total 
of 768 MB. Per the manual, this ECS KT600-A motherboard can support a max of 
3 GB of PC 2700 Ram. But once I installed it, the deadly blue screen 
appeared and smoke started coming out of the case.  I quickly removed my 
Vista CD and unplugged it.  I looked around in there briefly, just long 
enough to take out the brand new stick of Ram I purchased.  But I couldn't 
tell where the smoke was coming from. Has anyone experienced this problem? 
Any suggestions?


Kind regards,
Vanessa H.
