Not sure how u shorted it out installing ram. Theres only 1 way the put it in and there should have been NO power on the board at the time. AND I'd like to know how you think the board is shorted out. What is happening? It's a very rare occurrence and there are other easy fix issues that might make a person think the board is fried. Let me know your answers to these questions so I can help further.

if the pin placement is some thing like this
...... ............... ............................... its a SD RAM
if it is like this
.......................... ............................ its a DDR RAM
if it is a SD RAM or DDR ram just get it by the a computer store
there are only 3 types avalible for old computers SD or DDR or RD..... you dont need RD RAM it would be SD probably ....just look at a pin allignment.....
SOURCE: motherboard problems??
If all the peripherals are working in other machines then it sounds like the chipset or the bios itself would be suspect.
Did anyone Flash the bios with an upgrade?
I have a motherboard that the northbridge is affected. All components seem to work fine except no USB ports or CardBus work.
