I took both of those nasty ass old 512 MB RAM cards and replaced them with a shiny new Kingston 2 GB one. Now the system starts up and runs lickety split.
Oh yeah and I had to open the computer up myself, and it's an HP slimline, so it's harder than you'd think. First I had to remove the fan, then the cd drive, which had a 1/2 inch thick cable that was unmovable blocking it, then take out the old RAM and take a guess at which was Memory 0, because get it in the wrong slot, and you have no memory at all. Also, when I started the computer up, the fan in it blew a big ol cloud a dust in my face and nearly made me choke.
