I'll echo Laruent's findings as well. 10.4.1 on a 1st gen 17"

that causes the issues to stop.

Well, two problems: One, I don't have any other RAM for this - I
gave away the two 256'ers when I got the 1gb. Two: there was never
a problem with the RAM under, 10.3.x and it checks out just fine
under 8 hours of testing in memtest. Why would Tiger all of a
sudden decide not to like it? Would OWC take it back (lifetime
warranty)?
You are (possibly) where I was about 18 months ago: A 15" PowerBook
running the old OS just fine but choking on the new version. My RAM
passed all tests - even when I took it into the shop and had the tech
run Apple's diagnostics. But when we stuck a new stick in the machine
ran just fine, thank you. We saw a lot of this at the shop with the
Panther upgrade, not so much with Tiger, mostly Jag people who
skipped Panther. But we have seen it.
Yes, OWC should replace it without problem.
