Please Help Me!

I am new to the computer world and I am already having problems.
As far as I know I have an M922LU (V 5.0) motherboard that has ports for both SD and DDR ram. I only have 96 megs of ram now, and have just purchased a Samsung DDR 400MHz 1 GB (PC 3200) 184 Pin ram stick. I was told that this is compatible with my motherboard but I can not get it to work. My computer will turn on but my monitor does not. Any help in this matter would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
