Upgraded RAM, but Netbook not booting up.

[unhunkyguy]

I acquired a 2GB stick of Corsair PC3-10600, it runs at 1333MHz. I installed it properly, closed up the Netbook and powered it on. Blank screen. I checked the memory module it had, which is a "Samsumg 1GB 1Rx8 PC3-10600S", and I confirmed that I did buy the correct spec for the Corsair. I don't know if it is due to the BIOS or if the memory module is not working. Any help is greatly appreciated.

What netbook model did you get? AFAIK, they don't use DDR3...

I am using a Lenovo IdeaPad s10-3t. I bought simple "Laptop Memory". In all the research I did I found that, strangely enough, it does use DDR3. The memory module that came with it explicitly says so(PC3-10600). The Corsair stick matches up perfectly with it.

Does it work in neither slot?

 

[unhunkyguy]

The computer only has one slot.

I was checking Crucial's website, it says that this computer needs Non-ECC memory. Could this be why?

Don't know if this might exactly be the problem but I recently purchased Crucial RAM and I had to update my BIOS to get it working.
