Ram

Its most probally your ram,have you tried another ram in there just to test it? if the computer beeps it means that there is no ram present and that must mean that the ram is either damaged or just failed,try another stock of ram and then see what happens.....MAtsta

Make sure that you PULL the power plug when changing out RAM most motherboards are hot even when off (power is supplied to the board).

I think that Limp is right, you didn't fully seat the ram-- you should hear two distinct clicks when it goes in right.
