975 chipset has no support for ecc. On some boards it will run, with no ecc 
support...  On others you won't get POST.

FORC5,
  I spent months searching for ram for the PPro200 dinosaur.
I finally found a CA place (Santa Clara) that has lots of "old" 
ram, and, lots of buffered ECC stuff.  Yes, lots of pulls, but is 
all covered by their "if it does not work, we refund or swap until 
it does!"  I had to rma 2 sets of ram until I got a set that both 
FIT the dimm slots and was recognized by the mainboard. Price 
was cheap compared to the big server supply houses. Yes, Crucial
still lists the old stuff but has none :(
IIRC, an ECC dimm/simm will have a small chip in between the 2 
banks of ram chips used to buffer reads/writes to the mainboard.
Could be wrong, too.

Try here:
