+1 for Crucial memory for a Dell. Older Dell's are finicky and have a history of memory compatibility with many non-Dell brands and will not work. I worked the Dell forums for 10+ years and we always recommended Crucial memory for non-Dell branded memory as it is guaranteed to work in Dell's.
There are other brands that may work - its hit or miss. The exception is the Kingston Value RAM (KVR), it was almost always one that would not work.
