DDR MEMORY PROBLEMS!!!

Hello peeps, just got a few questions about PC2700 ddr memory and settings for them in the BIOS...first off the type of memory i am using is SAMSUNG, its only a 256MB SIMM, thats all i know becuase it says it on the chips and there are only chips on one side of the module, i was running it perfectly with all the settings on the fastest possible for a good hour or two, i did a few benchmarks and nothin suspicious, then all of a sudden i was about to do my 3rd or 4th 3dmark 2002 benchmark and once it started it reset, it kept doing this everytime i would restart right before it would log on to windows XP, it also gave me a BSOD saying something about PHYSICAL MEMORY DUMP, (and i also got a wierd one saying something about my video card once tho) so i knew it was either my ram or my Power Supply, so i lowered the settings from ULTRA to NORMAL (for speed) and i was just wondering what the difference is between NORMAL and ULTRA.... i havent tried FAST yet because i havent had time yet, also BANK INTERLEAVE is DISABLED, CAS is 2, 333Mhz, 4 WAY is on (rather than 2 way), and everything else is set to the fastest possible settings, so if i were to upgrade my 350W ENERMAX PS to a 400W+ would i be able to change my settings to ULTRA becuase i feel that my 350W PS isn't giving enough juice to my system, or could it be my ram??? i was thinking about returning the ram and getting some other kind or should i stick with my SIMM or get a DIMM?? if anyone has any info, i would appreciate it, thanx
