Make sure that the memory you purchased is: DDR II SDRAM - 533 MHz
You will most likely have to remove the existing 256 meg stick to make room (unless it's got more than two slots).
If you have the correct kind of ram, then try one stick at a time - if one or the other is bad, it can keep both from working.
Make sure you are installing it correctly, and that it is seated properly.
