I decided I wanted to build my own computer... and I'm in over my head :)
Now, some basic info, I bought an Asus P4P800S-X motherboard and bought memory the day before it would get here. I've been having trouble getting it to run and Asus thinks it's memory.. so I've been double checking my manual today and seen this. "Double-sided DDR DIMMs with x16 (data bus=16bit) memory chips are not supported due to chipset limitation.
And now, my memory I bought is DDR400 PC3200 VData memory, a 1 gig stick of it from a local shop and I can't really find a website with information about the memory on it, the best one I found and the closest to my ram is
Now, if you enlarge the picture there, you see a stick on the left in the middle it says DDR333(2.5) 1Gx16
Now MINE says DDR400(3) 1Gx16
Does this mean it's 16bit memory? I'm sorry if this is terribly confusing, I don't know alot about memory so I'm not sure what to tell you as for information, I'll provide whatever information I can if you need more.
Thanks VERY much for your time.
