General rule of thumb:  DON'T use "value" RAM on Dell systems -- if you want Kingston memory,

The part number is KCP3L16SD8/8

"Value" RAM is usually low-quality RAM - whatever the module manufacturer can buy cheapest when they need to build the module.  That means it's generally not a consistent product -- one package may have modules that work, while others have sloppier tolerances and won't. There's not a dramatic price difference between "value" RAM and higher quality, tighter-spec RAM anyway these days - it's not worth taking a chance on the cheaper memory.
