I would like to know if i can upgrade my ram with a faster processing rate ex. i have 1 128mb pc100 168 pin sdram DIMM i would like to know if i can put a 256mb pc133 168-pin sdram DIMM my computer says it has a max of 512 mb (2 x 256 mb DIMM) I would apreciate any comments thanks

Sure, you can always use faster (pc133) ram where slower (pc100) is required. AFAIK you should be able to just add one 256Mb pc 133 dimm and it should just work. Make sure that you get sdram (pc133) and not DDR(pc1600/pc2100).

and if your computer does not support pc133 ram it'll run on pc100 then. the new ram is downward compatible so you have nothing to worry.
