Could be the wrong RAM.
Replace the original RAM then travel to Crucial.com and enter your system specs and it will tell you exactly what type that machine uses.
We don't have this info so we cannot advise...

Yes, what happened to the old RAM?

Details about the computer and it's history are required. Miss Cleo is off till after Thanksgiving.

    Did you take static precautions?

    Is it seated properly?

    ^^ I'm agreeing with you.

    You've either not loading the RAM in properly or you've tried to do it the wrong way and perhaps damaged the old one?
