Need help with memory card (RAM)

[_8bit]

I bought a memory card from eBay and it can't fit in my slot. What can I do?

You should make sure its compatible next time. Use a website like pcpartpicker.com

Request to return it on eBay. If that option isn't available then you're out of luck. I would just try reselling it if that was the case.

I bought a kingston 4gb 2rx4 pc2-5300f-555-11-e0 and it won't fit in my motherboard.

I have a MSI P6NGM-FD (MS-7366) motherboard and my memory slot is DDR2 SDRAM (DDR2 DIMM)

you have to return that stick to the seller, it wont work with your motherboard . if you want to buy correct ram stick you have to take out one you already have and check the exact model, then buy that model from ebay.

If its the correct number of pins just kinda push it in.

are you lining it with the slot correctly, is there locks on the ends of the slot, that looks correct if your specs aren't wrong

No. You bought the wrong RAM. It's not going to work.
Return it. If they don't allow that - then don't make the same mistake again.

next time take out the ram you have and search for its model in ebay. then you will be sure to find the right one, if you get unsure. then pm the seller and send him your motherboard name and stuff

I did a similar thing a while back. I had an old PC, and bought some new DDR4 RAM to up my RAM. Unfortunately, my motherboard had DDR3 RAM slots.
I kept it, and later used the DDR4 8GB as extra RAM in my new PC, but I think in your case, reselling it is your best shot.
