PC beeps after installing new RAM

Not really their fault.

It's called service. They shouldn't hassle about a return.

Returns could cost a shop money if they specifically ordered an item. If it was just laying in the shop anyway then perhaps yes otherwise they have no guarantee it won't sell at a loss.

Well, they're not selling veggies.

On a special order they should help the consumer and check that the correct thing is being ordered, otherwise where is the value add.

With a special order a customer usually wants a specific item they don't normally stock. THAT's the value add. It's assumed the customer checked compatibility before ordering.

I suspect that your MB does not support 4GB ram, you need to try 2 x 2GB ram to confirm this.

I just think they got the delivery guy to come earlier instead of order that item specifically for me.

Here's someone with a similar problem. Look at the single reply, maybe it helps as well.

Thanks I might try that. btw clearing CMOS won't change anything will it? I won't have to change some settings to bring thing back to normal?

Depends on how many changes you made to the bios before. But that's easy to set up again, except if you want to fine tune RAM timing settings.

I think I'm just going to return it. Seems like a lot of hassles.
