is it a small vertical cylinder?

Yeah, it is.

I'm really hoping that'll work error-free. I don't want to dismantle this thing and return the motherboard. I've already had enough returns. It took me a week and a half to get this new memory, and I had to drive out to the UPS shipping depot just to pick it up yesterday. ARGH! I didn't budget $100 in return shipping into my computer.


ps-I've gotta ask: what motherboard do you have?!
