Apparently, your Packard Bell PC will only support up
to 256MB of RAM. Therefore, you can only install
another 128MB of RAM.

Every web site I visit states your Packard Bell imedia 4606
only supports 256MB of RAM.

It may not like mixing modules of different sizes - or may insist on
their being in specific slots. Try first with just the 512 one on its
own
