Please help me

Last December I purchased an eMachine T6000. It came with one stick of 512MB Samsung Memory. I recently purchased a stick of Kingmax 512 memory and tried to install it in the other slot. After I tried rebooting, the computer booted up, but the screen was blank. I removed the Samsung stick and replaced it with the Kingmax. It booted up fine. Then I tried taking out the Kingmax and placing the Samsung in the other slot. I got the blank screen again.
Obviously this one slot isn't working, is there a reason for this?
Also my comptuer only reports I'm using 256MB of memory.

I updated my chipset with the VIA 4 in 1, but I don't know if that was the right one. Can anyone help me please?
