Clarification on Memory module I purchased

I recently bought a 6g 3x2 DDR3 kit from Amazon. It's crucial memory that I saw on sale for $60 bucks. I tried booting the system with this memory, but it I don't get a post message. I have the DX58SO motherboard and the memory kit I have is CT3CP25672BB1067S. If you google the memory kit it says, ECC/Registered. I have no idea what this means. I thought maybe I might need to RMA it, or get a different set, but the same kit is now $200+ bucks. So what should I do?
 
if it's ECC/Registered then you need a board which supports that type of memory. it usually runs considerably more expensive than standard memory though, so what i would do is pack it back up as best you can and sell it on craigslist or ebay as open box for $150 or something, then et yourself a sweet OCing kit or 2 with the money you got for it
 
Ok I see. Seeing that the board didn't give any beep codes, I thought it saw the memory, but betaflame was right that in the product manual says only non-ECC ram.
