Reminds me I have to take the sledge to my old desktop's fried hard drive. I knew it would go haywire when I got it running faster that when it was new.

Got the replacement RAM today, but guess what? It doesn't even boot to the BIOS.It should be compatible. Maybe I'm missing something...

You sure you have the memory in all the way? it should snap in place. If there's nothing in there, or only partially in there, it won't boot.Originally Posted by badwhale

You should, however, hear a beep. How many 'beeps' does it give you?

Nah, it's in there with the "snap"
It doesn't give me any beeps, and the vid card fan runs full tilt, like on startup prior to the BIOS.
Asus M3N-HT is supposed to support DDR2 PC8500, but apparently it doesn't like it.

Pfft. They'd just tell me I need to open up more space inside my computer so it's more aesthetically pleasing and then just walk away.

Not sure if that's the right RAM for that mobo:
4 x DIMM, Max. 8 GB, DDR2 1066/800/667/533 Non-ECC,Un-buffered Memory
Dual Channel memory architecture
*DDR2 1066 is supported by AM2+ CPU only
**When installing total memory of 4GB capacity or more, Windows® 32-bit operation system may only recognize less than 3GB. Hence, a total installed memory of less than 3GB is recommended.
From the following spec page:
http://www.asus.com/Motherboards/AMD...specifications
It's very important that the RAM is non-ECC as well. Check the packaging on your replacement RAM and if it doesn't match the above, then you have the wrong RAM.
