You correct Gerry, I missed it.
The Kingston memory is 240 pin and as the manual states
the motherboard uses 184 pin memory.DDR and he purchased
DDR2 memory not DDR as stated in his original post.

What puzzles me is how did he insert the DDR2 in a DDR slot
the notch isn't in the same place???


The box the RAM came in, is not the original packaging
material. For example, if you want a fundamental check,
consider the memory chip part number the OP quoted.

The memory chip, appears to be a 64Mx8 DDR PC3200 chip.
You won't find DDR chips, soldered to a DDR2 module.

If the module had 16 of those chips, it should be a good one.
A low density 1GB module, shouldn't have a problem with
an 865PE motherboard. A low density 1GB module, should
work in any motherboard rated as being able to use
1GB modules. So I don't see a problem with the purchase.
