An actual model of the RAM (or it's detailed specifications) along with the model of your HP would help.

Have you purchased 2 x 2GB (4GB total, 2 DIMM modules) or 2 x 1GB (2GB total, 2 DIMM modules)?

How many DIMM slots do you have? What RAM is currently installed? Are you trying to mix the RAM? Can you get the system to POST with only one of the new modules (and nothing else)?
