From: bdeditch on 22 Apr 2008 00:17 Why does dell and Crucial say it takes PC3200 Memory sticks, Yet when you take out the old ones it has PC3200U on them and the PC3200 ones do not work? Is there any way of fixing the bios so you can run PC3200 sticks?

I have older systems that will take 512MB but not 1GB DIMMS. Could just be bad memory. One advantage of Crucial is they guarantee it will work.

There's really no need to have two threads going at the same time over the same issue. Get on the phone to Crucial tech support and hash it out. They'll make it right.
