The likelihood of failure due to voltages after this length of time is
unlikely ! Its more probable that one of the select lines on either
the ram stick or the mainboard has failed !
I will bet that the ram stick has chips on both sides ! That would be a
high density stick. A low density would only have chips on one side.
The mainboard failing to see one side of the ram stick is quite common !
Some times you can check whether it is the stick or the mainboard by
putting the ram stick into another slot ! If it recognises 512Mb then
the slot on the mainboard has gone faulty. Unfortunatly you will have
to put the ram stick into another machine / mainboard in order to
confirm that it is the ram stick !
HTH.
