DDR and DDR2 use different socket architectures. ie, DDR2 won't even
fit in the board, much less run on it.

Don't discourage him! >:-)

I read a forum of PC builders with photos of PCs people had brought in for
repair, one had a photo of some RAM that wouldn't fit, so the builder had
cut his own notches in the RAM to make it fit, lol!

Lots of pictures of mis-applied thermal paste, all over the socket *before*
the CPU had been inserted for example. Unfortunately I can't remember the
site, gave me a few laughs though.
