When both are plugged in can you see both in the BIOS? If no I suspect there is some incomparability, RAM can be awkward and is why it's recommended to buy as a kit and not mixed, even the same make and model can have comparability problems when not bought as a kit

Hoho.. Oh now i know what is the problem.. The RAM is 2GB RAM.. No wonder.. This RAM is suppose to be 2 KIT RAM.. 2GB + 2GB.. Because i buy it from the second hand shop they confuse it of 4GB RAM..
