Hello, i have bought a laptop which has 512 Mb of ram (RAM - 512 MB DDR 333), and i have another module of the same type but 1gb (1024 MB DDR 333). Could i add this module to my laptop? Can it cause instability to my system?

You might want to check out http://crucial.com/ and scan your computer for compatible memory. There are some laptop that can only support various size of RAM (i.e. max of 512MB only or max of 512MB per slot).

Did it work? Were you able to upgrade with no problems?

Yes... actually, there is not any problem yet... so i suppose it is fine.
