 There was only 1 DDR ram chip of 512MB and it had been working fine from
2000/2001 when I assembled this machine.
I need to find info on the 2 different PC2100s, high density and low density.

If two sticks of DDR RAM have failed withint a short time, that suggests the
RAM is probably OK and something else is to blame.  Or the RAM was damaged
by being installed in that motherboard.   Either way, if
removing/re-installing doesn't help, make sure you have an easy
return-for-refund on any RAM you buy to try to fix the problem.

As long as you buy PC2100 memory of the correct type (unbuffered,
*registered*, non-ECC) that together does not exceed the maximum capacity of
this motherboard, it will probably work.  I don't think I'd invest in more
than 1GB (2 x 512) for a machine of this age, though, and start with just
one to confirm or reject the "bad motherboard" theory.
