If the problem itsn't the new memory module and has only just occured, boot to DOS (using a bootable floppy disk, e.g. from http://www.bootdisk.com) and type the following at the C:\ prompt -

SCANREG /RESTORE

Note the space before the forward slash in this command.

Follow the on-screen instructions, and try to restore the *oldest* backup of the registry (they're listed by date) as that's the one with the best chance of being from before the problem arose.

By default Windows keeps 5 backup copies of the Windows Registry, so that you can go back to before the problem arose.

When an on-screen message tells you that the registry has been successfully restored, restart the computer normally.
