With the white clips still closed see if you can pull any end of the stick out. If you can it wasn't seated. Make sure the notchs procession up with the slot afterwards work it in until you hear 2 clicks, one from respectively end locking down.The winding up clips will usually close themselves when it clicks. Sometimes you can close the clips on ends when the memory isn't seated. Dont try forcing it in lug your time. If it still doesn't work pull your inventive stick out and try the new stick within its slot. If it boots then try totalling the old stick contained by second slot.

Make sure your new stick isn't ECC strike even thou you didn't order it. One time a customer ordered non-ecc and the company be out of it so, as a courtesy, they sent him more expensive ecc ram which, as expected, didn't work.
You can only put the stick surrounded by one way, it won't allow you to put surrounded by wrong way. As for your system not recognising it, do you enjoy Windows XP which should instantly recognise it. If an earlier book, look to see if it has be recognised by opening My Computer, C drive, or through Windows Explorer. If you do own an earlier variation of Windows, it may be that your stick needs software. If you enjoy XP, perhaps your stick is inaccurate because it should auto play.
If you have window 98 you may need to download the drivers.
