I have difficulties finding Ram for my old motherboard. I bought some ram (like 8gb) but they didn't seem to work as after I set them in my computer ceased starting.

I put in efford finding suitable ram, but seeing that abit from my understanding no longer exists I can't find any informations on useable ram.

Can someone please help me out and tell me what Ram I can buy that would work on my Abit 35 pro.

Many thanks in advance

That motherboard is really old, socket 775. It uses DDR2 RAM. Here's an example of a 1x4GB stick you could use or a 2x2GB set you could buy. I don't know how much RAM you have or how much you want to upgrade.

Memory
• 4x 240-pin DIMM slots support
maximum memory capacity up to 8GB.
• Supports Dual Channel DDR2 800/667
Un-buffered Non-ECC memory

I would assume max capacity of 8GB also means a max capacity of 2GB per slot. Did you use a 2x4GB kit by any chance?

Don't buy these. They are laptop memory.

Thanks for your help mate. Though I am not sure I want to invest 70€ for 4 gb ram. I use 2 GB ram but that's quite problematic, that's why I want to increas my ram since a long time.
Do you belive it is possible to find cheaper suitable ram? Or do I have to bite in the soure apple?

No, I bought DDR3 ram because I thought it was better... I am stupid, I know.

I use win 7 64bit, since a few month. If increasing the ram doesn't help I might go back to xp though.

If the 8 gig is too expensive you can still go up to 4 gigs and you should see improvement. What is your ram configuration right now. Can you add to what you already have in there or do you have to take the old stuff out?

You're using 64 bit so you don't have to worry. 32 bit has a <4GB total memory limit.
You already said they were ddr3 right?

Before I bought the ddr3 I didn't even know that ram isn't always compatible to the motherboard. Then I searched the website of abit and found out nothing.

Now I am not sure if the next time I buy ram it will work or not.

I use win 7 64bit, currently 2gb ram, use the abit 35 pro and a intle core 2 duo 3ghz.

So can I just buy these: http://www.amazon.de/Corsair-VS2GSDS667D2-PC2-5300-Arbeitspeicher-DDR2-SDRAM/dp/B000Q76LBY/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1348439215&sr=8-1

(Is are question, do you belive they would work?)

Those are laptop memory so no they wouldn't work.. you need DDR2 desktop memory.
