Be careful with cheap memory, most of it is high density and not compatible with all motherboards, you may need low density to work with some chipsets which is nearly twice as expensive .

If you go to http://www.crucial.com/uk/ and use the memory adviser tool it will give you a list of compatible modules for your board, up to you then if you by from them or not but the selection using the tool is guaranteed to work .

The safest way is to determine exactly what is already fitted in the machine using PCwizard here.

The motherboard is a Epox EP-8K7A+ if that helps the manual says The board supports (2) PC1600/2100 184-pin DIMMs (Dual In-line Memory Module).
The DIMMs is for DDR SDRAM (Double-Data-Rate Synchronous DRAM) only.

Crucial scan says I have one 256MB DDR PC2100 installed but can't offer any recomendations as that page is unavialable. So can anyone tell me if either of thoose on Amazon would work.

Thanks

Heres the link to your motherboard on Crucial http://www.crucial.com/uk/store/listparts.aspx?model=EP-8K7A

You have 256Mb installed so go for the 512Mb module at £18.79p
