Default Computer won't boot up after installing new RAM

Hi

Recently i installed new Kingston RAM two sticks of 1GB wanted to upgrade
since i had 512MB RAM.After i installed new RAM computer took around 20
seconds to boot up,power light,hard disk and fans all working but no beep
that happens at first when you boot up computer and nothing on the
screen.Then it booted up normally.Couple of days ago when i started computer
it didn't boot at all.Only power light,hard disk and fans are working but
again nothing on the screen and no POST beep.

I took off new RAM and installed the old ones that came with the
computer.It booted up normally without any problem.

Is it a problem with the new RAM i bought or a power supply problem.Please
help me solve this problem.

Old RAM are 2x256MB 400MHZ
