hi i'm making an new computer, and i put in memory, and the processor in too, when i start it up my asus H61m-a/usb3 does 1long beep, followed by 2 short in a neverending cycle, i read this means a memory problem. First of all, the memory doesen't physically sit right, yes i pushed it down on both sides with latches out, but it never seems to go far enough to click the latches down. Also, the memory is not on the qualifled vendor list. So is my memory simply not compatible?

Are you positive it's DDR3? Did you aline the notch in the DRAM correctly with the slot

Yes the DRAM, if it's DDR2 or DDR it will be be notched at a different place and not fit correctly
