Hi!

No, I don't think it will. ECC changes the way the memory works, and
the memory controller has to be able to deal with it. As best I know,
the Intel 845/845G chipsets cannot handle ECC memory. (From what I
remember, Dell systems using this chipset will only beep in protest if
ECC-equipped memory modules are installed.)

by having some of my reviews censored and/or rejected entirely of
course. they are particularly sensitive to comments regarding the
non-payment of rebates. and i assure you that i dot my i's and cross my

I was kind of spooked by the several negative reviews on the pqi brand
stick but after your post I'm going for it. Thanks for the replies
everyone.
