ECC RAM

This is a discussion about ECC RAM in the Windows Hardware category; I got a stick of 128 mb PC100 CL3 ECC ram today for free. What can I use it in? my CUSL2 probably doesn't use ECC. my A7V133 is using Mushkin at 133mhz, so I won't tarnish its good name with no-name memory.

My other computers use EDO SIMMS.
 
What does ECC memory work in?

Most server boards support it. All of my ASUS boards have too. However, don't mix ECC with non-ECC RAM. No benefit to be gained, and they may not work with each other anyway.

Pay attention. At least CUSL2-C doesn´t support ECC.
I was VERY unhappy to see that. But since i-815 with max 512 MB can´t be used as a workstation or server the support for ECC doesn´t make too much sense, too. Well, toys...
