The spec for this module is ECC,EDO,Buffered, 60ns. using 16 bit chips.
Your system has four slots. There is no need to install in pairs. To max this system, you could only install 4 x 128MB modules with these specs:
128MB, ECC, EDO, buffered,60ns, using 16x4 structured chips with 4K refresh.

Not actually. This was the case for SIMM modules in Pentium systems. Each module was 32 bit and Pentium operate at 64 bit memory banks. The module he has is a 64 bit module. There are some server out there which require these 168p,edo modules to be in pairs, but not for his system.

Portfox,
The modules on your computer are 3.3V, this is what you computer takes. How many chips does not tell you what voltage they will run at. Answer a few questions for me.
How many modules do you have?
What is the info on one of the memory chips on the module?
What is your BIOS version?(this can be seen on boot up)
The Beep codes you are receiving means the following:
1-3-3-1 No DIMM memory
installed
Defective DIMMs or system
board. Reseat the
DIMMs or replace the system
board.

IhelpU
I have two Modules
There is no video on Boot
I spoke to the guy who sold me the unit and it was running very well before transport. Unless transport has killed the board.
Here is a link to a picture of the RAM modules
Info: EDO-32MB-ECC HYMDL05032
OEM#DELL 311-0105
B#A990107
Information on chips:
0117405BJ1E
60 53H2549
IBM 5352
739050102 Q
Just one last note, the modules where extremely tight to get in the DIMM slots.
Thanks in Advance

If they go in like SIMM EDO they go in at an angle and then lift up to the verticle position. Do they have gold clips at each end of the slots? If so, they go in at an angle first. They would be hard to push in vertically. That could damage them also.

Well i can see the modules are using 4x4,edo,2K refresh chips. memory should be fine. When installing the memory, make sure the clips are pushed out before installing. You might try clearing the CMOS on the motherboard. This can be done by removing the CMOS battery with the power disconnected or there may be a jumper on the motherboard which does this. The system has four memory slots, so you can also try moving the modules to alternate slots. Also try installing one module only. You may have a faulty stick.

Guys
Im know leaning towards that the motherboard is dead. I have tried all of the above and it still gives me the error code.
Here is the link again, this time it works, sorry.
When i was talking about the ram mod's being tight, my friend suggested to cut a small amount out of dead 168 pin to see if that fitted better, it did.
What do you think, notch alittle out of a good stick to seeif it slots in better?

Portfox,
These guys have the memory you need. They are a pretty clean outfit.
Good Luck!
