I doubled the RAM from 256 to 512. Apple Profiler says I'm running two identical cards

Size: 256 MB
Type: SDRAM
Speed: PC133U-333

...but as soon as I installed the second card, app's began quitting without warning. First Firefox; I noticed today Word quitting. Yahoo & Hotmail going away in the middle of a new message, etc.

Today I finally removed the second RAM card and all seems to be fine again. Any conjecture on what's going on? The two cards are not physically identical: the original has a thinner profile. But they appear to run at the same speed.
