Your motherboard only supports a maximum of PC3200 memory.

The 8400GT should not work in your computer, the motherboard you listed only has an AGP slot not PCI-E, so you you must have listed a diff motherboard if it is working.

thanks for your help wish i knew that b4 just got graphics card today and saw it didn't fit :mad: so im gonna need to try something else any suggestions on what to do is mother board cheap to replace id prob pay some1 to do it but is it some thing that could be done in an hour as its usually hourly rate or any thing else worth replacing

Whereabouts are you?

Hmm send the GPU back, theres no need to replace the motherboard really, you can just get an AGP GPU, do you game or anything?
