Hi Kal,

look there for a relevant program to identify with. That list is memory programs only. :)


/edit:
Actually this page might be much better:

well, you work out the FSB of your computer, like, if its an AMD 2200+ running at 1800 on a 266 fsb, then, the FSB is 133, which means, fuck knows :p Umm, just get DDR400, it should revert to the slowest form of travel (ddr1600 or someting) just dont quote me on that

[Kal]

so your saying that if i just buy the best DDR ram i can find it'll work?

[Kal]

alright i think its 266,

thanks for the help and anyone know any good sites to order it off?

edit: found 512 mb for £65, that ok? *doesnt know much about RAM pricing*

266 = 2100, i got 512 from ebay for 40 quid on the buy now option, was some IBM stuff too, class item.

[Kal]

oooh ok il look there

uhm, was there ever a DDR200 ? I thought all ddr halo started from 133MHz (ddr266)

defo check Ebay out, i buy all my PC shite from there, and i have never had any roblems yet.

most people with 50+ feedbacks are very reliable and will offer 12-36 months warranty especially on memory.

there is a guy (cant remember name) who uses dane-elec memory which comes with a life-time warrenty

always cheaper than the shops
