Install and run Belarc Advisor. It will report your memory showing each slot as follows:
1024 Megabytes Installed Memory
Slot 'A0' is Empty
Slot 'A1' has 512 MB
Slot 'A2' has 512 MB
In this way you can see which slot is the problem. First remove and reinstall memory to the bad slot and reboot. If that doesn't work swap suspect memory to another slot and reboot and run Belarc again. There are three possible results.
1. No change - Most likely a bios issue.
2. Different slot reports empty - Bad memory stick, contact your supplier
3. With luck, all slots report memory present.
