Dimension 3000 RAM installation problem

I have a Dimension 3000 that is running really slowly, so I decided to upgrade the RAM from the original 256MB to 2GB. When I put the new RAM in, the computer beeped (1-3-2), and wouldn't go any farther.   The lights in the back show green-yellow-green-yellow, which indicates that the RAM has some compatibility issue, but I can't figure out what that issue may be since it seems to be exactly the type of RAM I need to upgrade the computer.  When I put the original RAM back in, all works fine again.  Can someone help?

Thanks!

I bought the following:
