I don't know if this is your machine, but the article at
<http://manuals.info.apple.com/en/imacG5_17inch_memory_.pdf> indicates that you
can only add 256 MB, 512 MB, and 1 GB sticks in either slot, not a 2 GB stick.
Find your machine at <http://www.apple.com/support/diy/> which points to iMac
G5 <http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=300205>.
