certain mobos may work, but the laptop chip is alot different then a desktop.
its really hard to tell if that is the problem or not though. since it wont boot with a standard chip.

Got it working. I found another stick of ram that was the same speed and tried it and it worked. Both of them are in it now. Don't understand any of that crap.
