Had some Adata DDR2 in the machine I am upgrading. I bought the ram from Newegg last year. So, I pulled up my old invoice and clicked on the hyperlink. It pulled me to the same page:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820211066
The stuff I have is listed as DDR2 800(5) 1G x16.
What showed up is DDR2 800(5) 1G x8.
Both sets are A-DATA 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400).
The old stuff won't let me boot on my new motherboard. They work just fine on the 'old' mobo. What gives? I made sure I picked the same damn stuff so I could have 4GB ram.
I did just notice the 'K' is missing on my old ram, however it is listed on the description on my invoice from 2008:
A-DATA 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model ADQVE1A16K - Retail
Item #: N82E16820211066
2009 invoice info:
A-DATA 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model ADQVE1A16K - Retail
Item #: N82E16820211066
I'm pretty screwed on this one aren't I?
