David, could you give us the part numbers of the kingstom ram you purchased? Regarding upgrading ram: some people have done it successfully and documentated it somewhat at juniper.cluepon.net.
Anyway first thing i'd do is getting 3 completly equal type/size ram sticks and use them. I would never use different ram sorts (even if they are the same size). Not in a normal PC and not on a RE.
