RE: [H] Mixing Ram ECC and non-ECC 168pin on a computer

In older BIOSes you typically have to enable ECC. So....don't enable it and 
you might have luck. Worth a shot anyway.

Trying to help a friend out that has an old Presario - It uses 168-Pin
SDRam.
I have a 128 meg stick of ECC -  Obviously they are currently using 
non-ECC.
They have an empty slot.

Will the bios just ignore the extra bits or will this cause a problem?
thanks
