It's hit and miss and a lot of times a miss when trying to add more memory that is not matching your current memory.
If you list the exact memory you have then you might get some help with some settings to get it to work.

Ditto on the hit and miss, if the cas latencies and clock speeds arent the same then theirs little chance they'll work

may look this over and maybe the cause with any brand of memory today with that chipset

Hi, I'm Jewel with Kingston Technical Support and would like to offer our assistance. It is possible that the HyperX 4GB memory modules are Single Rank as the latest builds of that part number are Single Rank. Up until recently 4GB modules were standard Dual Rank. Basically, the issue that can occur is that the memory module uses high capacity individual memory chips (DRAM) that the motherboard is not equipped to recognize. Usually, if a motherboard is able to recognized standard 8GB modules it should not have an issue recognizing Single Rank 4GB modules. A "1R" may be printed on the label which would indicate it as single rank. Otherwise, we can confirm this based on a reference number printed on the memory label that we can look up in our system. Other common issue with the DDR2/DDR3 combo motherboards that can be overlooked is that it only supports DDR2 OR DDR3 memory. This means you cannot have both DDR2 AND DDR3 memory installed at the same time, it is an either/or option. We do not currently support your PFG41C-M LX motherboard as we no longer manufacture memory that would be compatible with that motherboard. For any further assistance, please call us at 1-800-435-0640 (USA and Canada only) M - F 6am - 6pm PT and I or another available Technician will assist you. Please be sure to have the part in question on hand when you call.

you see a lot of this with older boards and newer memory modules

just to add if it helps any and may be better or atleast work as expected ??

''Pros: If you need memory for an older motherboard that uses the Intel G41 chipset this will work.''

seems I recall g-skill rep recommended it for a guy with a 775 in the same boat as you ?

never hurts to e-mail support to see what they suggest first these days ?

bad best answer . todays high density memory IC's use are not compatible with them boards . as talked up here
