>>whether or not this type of RAM would be ok in my system.
Please refer to your manual that came with your motherboard. It will state
weather it can handle PC133 chips. More than likely, the answer will be yes.

Subject: [pchelpers] A question about DIMMS
Importance: High
Greetings Everyone!
I've just upgraded my mobo/CPU to an IWill KK266Plus-R with an Athon XP
1600+,and I currently have 384MB SDRAM (3 128MB DIMMS). I'm looking at
doubling
that amount by replacing the 3 128s with three 256s.
The particular RAM I'm looking at is: "High Density (32x4) 256MB PC133
Memory
168pin"
I'd be much obliged if someone could provide me some info and/or experience
with
this type of memory, and whether or not this type of RAM would be ok in my
system.
According to the reseller's documentation on their website about this
particular
memory, it states as follows: "These modules are made using a high-density
32Bit
DRAM Chip. To use this module, your motherboard must be able to accept a 512
MB
DIMM in each memory slot. If not, your system might only recognize the chip
as
128MB".
My mobo is one of the newer ones and is capable of accepting (and
recognizing) a
512MB DIMM in each above its banks (3).
Please advise. Thanks!
