Ram help!!

[collibr]

I know this computer sucks, I'm stuck with it though. Question: is the 1GB DDR Memory Ram PC3200 ECC Reg DIMM 184-pin 400MHz compatible with the Dell Dimension 3000???

So it doesn't look like it's working I put it in and my computer beeps what am I doing wrong

Yeah so I spent $50 on that frickin ram and it doesn't work, it's ECC and my comp only holds non-ECC, thanks bud

ECC is like slow-ass RAM bud, runs at a slower speed to check for memory errors (Error Checking & Correcting (ECC))

Yeah I didn't realize that, don't know too much about computers, that's why I needed help and didn't get the best.

What is the best/fastest ram I can get for my Dell Dimension 3000?

My bad. I totally missed the "ECC Reg" in the 1st post.

The same RAM speed and size will work just get "Non ECC" RAM.
