But I checked, the RAM was installed properly.

How many DIMM slots do you have (slots to place memory) on your motherboard?

If you only have two, remove the 2nd stick and leave the 1st one in and try to boot up the PC. If this doesn't work, remove the 1st stick, and put the 2nd stick into the first slot and try again. Let me know what happens.

Which one the the first or second? (left to right?)

Doesnt matter which is which, pull both out and try each one individually

I am out at the moment. If I try that when I get home, and it still does not fix the problem, does that mean the RAM sticks are dead?

Probably, if one works and the other doesnt then you found the issue

So if both of them are installed (1 works and 1 dead), Thats the problem?

Yes, even though there are 2 sticks, 1 dead stick won't allow the PC to boot. You are going to have to use the working one for now until you can get another. (If this is even the problem)

If I do get another, do they need to be the same? (eg. same model)

I had them for about over a year.
