Did you get the correct ram type?  Also I think you might have to adjust the voltages or something...

are you sure that the ram you installed isn't compatible with a different date than your monitor is used to running with?

The ram is probably screwed then, I suggest returning it.

I've got spurs that jingle jangle jingle.
As I go riding merrily along.
And they sing, "Oh, ain't you glad you're single?"
And that song ain't so very far from wrong.
