I hope title of the post helps out.

My motherboard supports both SDRAM and DDRRAM.
Right now it has 640mb sdram, and I just got 2x1gb of ddr400 ram for this computer.

Motherboard Manual says the mobo is:

p4vxasd2 or
p4vxasd2+, I believe it is this one (the later one).

I have no idea how to find out if this mobo is asus, intel or whatever. I wish I knew.

---------------------------------------

To plug in the ddr ram, there's a set of jumpers right beside where the RAM goes in. The length of this "thing" is the length of a RAM stick. I was given 8 jumper switches to put into this area, but lost them, and these 8 jumper switches were not 2x1 like the usual jumpers for the reset/power buttons, but they were 8x2 or something around those lines, 8x2 or 10x2.
I tried putting in the reset/power button jumpers, but it just doesn't work, so I need to find these 'lengthy' jumpers so I can plug in the DDR ram.

Where can I find/buy these lengthy jumpers?
Also, Where can I upload personal digital camera pictures I have taken of my motherboard?

TY for your time,
Neo

I would send off an email to ECS tech support and see if they can point you in the direction of where to get the jumpers you need
