and here is my crucial scan

offer any opinions? is it the ram that isnt working or human error?
oh i would like to add a bit more information, my pc is a 32 bit version and the ram's data bus is 64 bit, is that the cause for the ram issue or am i just looking too much into that?
additionally i have tried variously methods of inserting the DIMM:
1. dual channel (white,black,white,black--128mb-1gb-128mb-1gb)vice versa*
2. inserting 1 gb ram card at a time
3. taking out my 2x128 and inserting 2x1gb ( heard a long beep sound, no boot up)
in short, i have tried every single combination and none of em have worked !
