Mushkin Ram NOT work at new iMac!!??

[applefish]

Hi all,
I plan to upgrading my New iMac from 1G to 4G.
Jest buy 2x Mushkin DDR-26400 2GB 800MHz SO-DIMM Ram but the Ram is NOT working in my new Mac. After put the in and can not turn on the computer.

I am using 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo 20-inch iMac(MB323LL/A).

Does Corsair DDR2 800CL5 work?
Any recommendation?

Does it work with just one of the sticks in? Those should be okay...

No it only work with the original ram.
Any Brands you can recommend?

Put in one stick of the original RAM and one of the Mushkin. Then run Apple Hardware Test and see what it says about the memory.

Kingston/Crucial/Corsair.

Mushkin is a perfectly reputable brand.

It can't turn on the computer when i put in Mushkin Ram.

Any one have experience upgrading this iMac model?

Some of my friend also recommend Mushkin. It works on their iMac 2007.
But how come it doesn't work on the April 28, 2008 version?

Does it beep? Maybe the RAM is bad..
