So are you saying that both sticks are exactly the same type RAM but only work 1 at a time? Are you putting the sticks into slot 1 and 2?<br />
<br />
When you check the BIOS with both sticks inserted what does it say?

None of the Gateway support documents show the maximum memory, but Crucial is correct ... it supports a maximum of 2GB. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;The laptop uses the Intel GL960 chipset ... which supports a maximum of 2GB of memory: &nbsp;<a href="http://ark.intel.com/chipset.aspx?familyID=26558" rel="ugc">http://ark.intel.com/chipset.aspx?familyID=26558</a><br />

A laptop or notebook is a portable personal computer with a clamshell form factor, suitable for mobile use. Although originally there was a distinction between laptops and notebooks, the former being bigger and heavier than the latter, there is often no longer any difference. Laptops are commonly used in a variety of settings, such as at work, in education, and for personal multimedia. A laptop combines the components, inputs, outputs and capabilities of a desktop computer, including the display screen, speakers, a keyboard, and pointing devices (such as a touchpad or trackpad) into a single unit. The device can be powered either from a rechargeable battery or by mains electricity from an AC adapter.
