Is ECC RAM problematic even with motherboards that support it?
ECC, we are not talking <Registered> is not at all problematic. At least I have never had any kind of problem, what so ever, with Crucial ECC. ECC will work in any memory slot. If it is not supported, or is installed with non ECC memory, then it will simply default to the lower specification.
I'm getting reports that "Ultra" ECC RAM (model ULT31428) - which looks like fancy RAM (it comes in a wood box) but I can't find a manufacturer - doesn't work in motherboards that claim ECC compatibility.
Wood???? that is about as low tech as you can get. I never understood wood cabinets on TVs, or wood dash on a car. You wouldn't want a wood dash on your plane would you? Besides, by the time they build up enough high tech polymer plastic coating over 1/32 inch veneer, it doesn't look real anyway!
