I've tried to install two new 1gb ddr pc2700 ram chips. when i try to switch on my computer after the upgrade it just beeps. I've put my old ram back in and it works fine. any ideas?

My PC Is a HP pavilion a309.uk

Sounds like the PC doesn't like the ram you are trying to install, goto www.crucial.com and select the UK site, then check what modules you should have.

I think you're looking at 1GB 184pin PC2700 DDR333 DDR 2.5V DIMM. If you have different, you may need to exchange them
