Ok here is the deal. I just bought 2 more gigs of rams (so I can have 4gb)

I know they are compatible with my motherboard, as shown here.

I shut down my computer and everything, then properly installed the ram. But when I went to turn on my computer, everything ran like normal on the computer, but as I waited for my monitor to start up it refused to do so. I checked to make sure nothing came loose inside the case and re-put in the RAM and the videocard just to be sure. Turned it on again and the same problem with the monitor.
At first I thought my motherboard was fried, but it was still running like normal, so I removed the new RAM from the computer and turned it back on to find that the computer ran normal again.
Anyone one have any idea what is wrong or what I can do? I hate to have wasted $90.
