    The manual for the board indicates it is compatible with 667 MHz (PC2-5300) DDR2 memory (page 2-12), however what processor model do you intend to use?

    Also, a search for the memory part number of 73042 at Crucial.com did not yield any results. It might be prudent to first confirm with Crucial that the memory is legit.
