Please return the Amazon RAM and if you are in the UK then buy Crucial.com RAM or you can find a UK distributor for OWC RAM at OWC Europe, just click the map of the UK and you will find them. NEVER EVER buy from Amazon for RAM, always buy direct!

Uninstall the upgraded RAM and then retry. Exactly what brand of RAM did you buy and where did you buy it? Most experienced users on these forums will only install either Crucial.com or Macsales.com RAM, why because iMacs are VERY fussy about using quality RAM and both vendors only supply quality RAM, have great service, offer good prices so really there is no reason to not use them. If you already did buy directly from them and used their RAM, please contact them for assistance.
