This is a complete shot in the dark, but have you thought about
increasing your pagefile prior to installing the new memory? I don't
believe this would cause the server to BSOD, but hey, anything is
possible these days. ;o) Since it registers fine in the BIOS, it is
definitely OS related, but where the relation lies is definitely weird.

Subject: RE: 2000 Server SP2 Blue dump with 512mb memory
MOBO = Asus CUSL2-c (supports 512)
Processor = Intel 1 GHz
Mother board counts all 512 and starts to load 2k server = DUMPS, 2k
server will load with 256mb. This is a brand new box so we've tried
different mother board, processor, ram, drive, cd-rom , EVERYTHING to
get it to install. Only successful install was with 256mb ram. After
that when we put in 2nd chip it craps out. We remove chip and all is
well. We've flashed bios on adaptec card, mother board, we've ran
diagnositcs on every component. I know this has to be issue with 2k and
512mb on the 815e chipset.
However was wondering if someone else had run into this. Other than
that I satisfied with all we've done to note this as an incompatibility
problem.
