I just installed more RAM two 512MB dimms with the same specs. Now when i start vista it says that windows has failed to boot. A recent hardware or software change might have caused this. please repair your installation.
Now I switched the computer off from the main power supply and then restarted it and now it works fine.
Should i be worried?

It should be fine, sometimes the POST doesn't pick up the new dimms off the get go. A second boot fixes this

I don't believe you have any problems. It sounds like your OS simply didn't recognize the new RAM initially.
Go to http://www.belarc.com and download and install the Belarc Advisor. In the report it generates it will tell you exactly how much RAM is installed in each slot and will give you the confidence that everything is fine.
Another thing you can do is to go to these web sites and run their RAM detection utility and see what it reports for RAM quantity and how much is in each slot.

I don't think you have any issues at all, but I think you need to verify that your 2 X 512 MB sticks are being fully recognized.
