Not to be beating a dead horse or anything but based on that documentation the Mobo doesn't support more that 1gb per slot....which isn't correct. I'm a tad upset because Crucial told me the same thing about the E510, not only did I buy their memory, but I went for Windows 7-64bit. Now I have 2 DIMMS of PC-5300 2gb RAM that I can't use inside the E510. So, I too was hoping there was a way around this, and wondering how Crucial could be THAT wrong about this mobo?

It appears not according to Dell's specifications, but Crucial does state the e510 supports 8gb [ 4 x 2gb modules ], see HERE

Based on our documentation <ADMIN NOTE: Broken link has been removed from this post by Dell> I would say no.

Thanks, gang. That's what I thought, but I was hoping there was a work-around for either the Mobo or the Intel chipset. :-) I appreciate your answers.
