I have 2GB DDR2 PC2-6400 Unbuffered NON-ECC 1.8V 256Meg x 64 in two slocks (Total 4GB) I order 4 gb two more memory to upgrade RAm but when I install new memory it would nto work and has not display, black screen come out.
 
Check that the RAM sticks are bottomed down on the RAM slots. Even a fraction of a millimeter off can cause such issues. After that, try the PC with the old RAM sticks removed and only the 2 new sticks installed on slots 1 and 2... then after if it displays, posts and boots, turn the PC off and add the 2 old sticks on slots 3 and 4. BTW, are the new sticks of higher specifications?.. if so, the more reason to install them on slots 1 and 2... higher speed stick should go on first or the PC may not boot.
