it's best not to mix different clock speeds of ram, so if the laptop already has a pc100 module then this is what you should buy.0

What should happen is the PC133 module will only run at PC100, because the slowest module depicts the speed of any others.0
-
Also, if you have trouble getting it to boot up, try swapping the modules round, as in some laptops the BIOS seems to check the clock speed on only one of the modules and assume that the other is the same.0

It should work fine but at 100Mhz.:doh: Blue text on this forum usually signifies hyperlinks, so click on them!..:wall:0
