Trying to upgrade my dinosaur

Most likely will not work. Those older chipsets require low density ram so a 4Gb low density dimm will have 16 chips(8 on each side). The Adata ram you posted is single sided with 8 chips(all on 1 side). Another way to identify using the specs is the rank. A 1rx8 is high density and will not work, 2rx16 is low density and what you are looking for.

Looking at the same site I found this.

Specs are kinda lacking but images(google and newegg) show that it's double sided.
You just need DDD3 RAM in 1066 speed. Are you replacing the RAM or adding a second chip? If a second one, best thing would be to buy the same model as what you have now. If you can't find one, just get a matching size and speed one of another good brand.
