What's the wattage on your Power Supply Unit? Its possible that your PC hangs due to insufficient power.
But to be honest, do you really need 1.5gb of RAM? I can't see the point myself.

If you've got a 128mb vidcard than that's the problem, I got the same thing. Setting textures to medium helps (a lot)

I guess adding another 512mb ram would indeed slove this problem, check the motherboard manual (some motherboards
require the ram to be put in specific slots to work correctly).

To find out if it is a 'amount of wattage' problem, just downclock your processor and vidcard and then check and see if works.
