non ECC

Hi!

I wonder if anyone can tell me how I can see if a memory is ECC or not? I
have just bought a memory module, 512 mb PC2100 ddr and don't know if it is
broken or if it is ECC. My mainboard does support non ECC only. When I start
the computer with this memory it sounds like an ambulance´s sirene or
something.

Thanks
Yvonne
