I second that, I just got my replacement (also a Dell part) and popped
it into the W2K 560x.
So far everything looks good, it passed the internal memory check and
seems to run fine. I was able to open the control panel and hardware
device manager without incident.
I tried playing an MP3 while creating thumbnail images with IRFANview,
the music slowed down noticeably but nothing crashed.
I'm now running Memtest (one pass so far, no errors).
I have 2 questions:
What else can I do to test this memory?
How many passes through Memtest is considered sufficient?

Thanks

technology is the answer, what was the question?
