RAM didn't work

My 2GB of RAM I ordered unfortunately did not work out. They appeared to be correct. Both were labeled DDR2 533MHz PC 4200/4300. That's what my laptop takes according to Gateway, but the computer would not boot. Not even the bios menu showed up. Just a black screen.

I tried every combination of new and old sticks possible, but no dice.

Computer still works fine with old RAM reinstalled.

Sending the RAM back to Amazon. I will have to do some research before I buy any more memory.
