IS PC DIMM Memory compatible with Mac g5?

[graveflower187]

I've searched for about 2 hours trying to find an answer for this question online,to no avail.
My only hope now is that someone on here will know. My question is that I have 2 DIMM memory cards from an old PC with files on it (important stuff!otherwise I wouldnt bother lol), only now I have a Mac G5 instead of a PC....are the DIMM cards compatible? They fit in the empty memory slots and they seem to be the same type except I can't find the speed of the PC card anywhere on it.... I don't want to risk using the memory card and potentially messing up my computer/overheating it and losing important files on the Mac untill I know for absolute sure that they are compatible. IF I were to be able to use it, I would be opening Virtual PC on OS X to get the content off the card,would that even work? If these cards are NOT compatible,is there any sort of adapter that would allow me to obtain the files off the lonely old PC memory and transfer it to my Mac harddrive????

some information on the Mac Memory cards if you need it
---Size: 256 MB
Type: DDR2 SDRAM
Speed: PC2-4200U-444


Information on the PC cards

please someone help!! this is going to drive me bananas!

1st, The RAM is not compatible.
2nd, Your information is not stored on the RAM when the PC has no power. All info is stored on Hard drives.
What you need to think about if you need your info off your old PC is you may want to pull the Hard drive out. You can if you would like as an option, get an external enclosure to place the Hard drive into. That will hook up via the USB port.

You could also transfer your data over a network, using peer-to-peer ethernet, or using a data transfer cable (easiest if your PC has a FireWire connection). Here's what Apple says.
