Hi,
I have a Matsonic MS8308EP board & Crucial Scan says that it only accepts Non-ECC RAM.

However I am currently running my PC with ECC RAM installed which WinXP correctly recognises as 2 x 512 sticks. Since it is obviously working should I leave well alone or will it damage my PC using these sticks.

The sticks of RAM currently installed are :

2 x 512Mb - Samsung PC133R ECC SDRAM M390S6450AT1-C75

I am thouroughly confused & bewildered by the intricacies of memory & would appreciate any help you can offer.

Regards,
CDH
