I have seen users break their motherboards fuck up RAM sticks and ruin the slots. In fact, I have seen so-calleda tech ruin a $20,000 server doing something as simple as installing a network card. you, yourself have noted the inaccuracy of the software reporting a non existent RAM type. is he now supposed to believe it?
I truly believe that CMn is out of his depth here. He could get teh mainboard model from that application he's using go tothe Mfgr website and find out the type(s) of RAM supported copy that down and go buy it. Maybe he is unsure. This is a guy that couldn't tell a serial port from a video port if they weren't color coded.
Nothing wrong with going down getting it installed; installing a set of points in 65 chev 327 is easier and requires less skill; I know alot of folks that can't or won't do that. If you're not comfortable doing something. Don't do it.
I have a car, CMn, call me.
