Personal Workstation 500au memory compatibility?

Personal Workstation 500au memory compatibility?
Hi.
Recently i got luck and found and affordable Compaq/Digital Personal Workstation 500au.
I wonder if it's possible to use standard REG ECC SD-RAM with it?
A test with two sticks of Kingston KVR133X72RC3/256 "standard PC REG ECC RAM" failed. The memory gets detected at boot, but the system crashes shortly afterwards.
Now i wonder if it's just an issue with PC133 or that "standard PC REG ECC RAM" simply just doesn't work with the system.

Does anybody have experience with "foreign" RAM in an PWS?

Also: Do standard radeon 7500 pci cards work in them? I have Tru64 5.1B running atm.
