Problem is that registered sticks are keyed differently than regular

modify the slot, the contacts will not line up. So they can not work

also found RAM pulled from a Dell PowerEdge 2500 Server on ebay, and
it IS ECC and registered

2GB 2x 1GB PC133 Dell Poweredge 2500 2550 Memory RAM

so if Mark actually used RAM pulled from a DPE2500, that would be the
reason he had/has so many glitches. ;O)

Not to mention the destruction of the memory slots by forcing in memory that will not fit.
