upgrading to 1024 mb from 512. wondering if the 1024 ddr2 pc4200 is compatible with my desktop pc's motherboar

Should be OK as long as the new RAM is of the same type as the 512.....meaning if your 512 RAM is unbuffered, you need same unbuffered 1gig...or if it is Registered then the 1 gig has to be Registered also. You can't mix different types or the computer won't boot.

Effectively, no.  PC133 is SDRAM packaged in a DIMM.  (See the Wiki page in the sources if you want more information.)\n\nIf you're intending to upgrade, assertain how much memory you can install in your PC and then ask for whatever number of megabytes of PC133 that you want prior to handing over your pennies.  The vendor will know what you mean.

U can put the ram in as long as it has room for it. Normally computers have 2 slots. Just make sure that u have and empty slot and the new RAM is on the same frequency. Not having the same frequency will lead to a lot of system crashes. \nThere should be no trouble in putting the new one in, u will have a better performance no doubt.

yeah it is possible to increase it. most old motherboards supporting P3 let u upgrade to 512 mb or 1 gb at the most any more than that ur mobo or ur cpu won't handle

you can put two 512mb ddr-266 dimms for a total of 1 gb pc2100 memory

No it is not a problem.  You prob have an onboard video card that is using that memory.  Most likely the video card is 32MB, but there is a slight chance that it could be 64MB card, but its only using half of its resources.  A good way to tell is go to the manufacturers website and look up your model number.  Usually they divide up the components so just look under the video category and it should tell you the size.  If its 32MB then that is most likely your issue.

easy,juz plug in the RAM n turn on ur pc...mostly it'll function coz RAM size doesn't metter, but the speed does...u juz mention bout 256MB n 512MB of DDR RAM but wat's it's clock speed...coz some of 266 mainboard cannot support DDR400...\n\noh ya...and some times the brand of the RAM will effect the result...\n\nanyway...theories doen't gv result...so the easier way is to test it practically...\nEXP: some time Kingston RAM will Clash with Apeccer RAM...

According to the HP website info for that model, it can be upgraded to a maximum 512 MB. It takes PC133 SDRAM and has 2 DIMM slots. (Note: While it can physically hold 2x 512, it may not be able to address the 1GB of memory if installed.)\n\nSo you'll have to get a couple of 256MB SDRAM 133MHz PC133 and put one into each of the slots.\n\nNote: Before you go shopping, check what's there currently. The specifications for that computer said that it came with 256, but didn't say whether that was in the form of 1x 256MB module, or 2x128 MB module. If there is a DIMM slot still free, then you only need to get one more module and add it in. If not, then you'll have to pull out the 2x 128MB modules and replace them  with 2x256MB modules.

Your mother board's very old, you won't see a large boost in performance by putting in new RAM I wouldn't think.  It can only up to 1.55 GB at a slower speed.\n\nFrom the source website:\n\nSYSTEM MEMORY: \n3 X  DIMM sockets \nMax. 1.55GB   PC133/VC133 non-ECC SDRAM

Wow. So the main thing to note about this board is that it takes DDR2 memory, so if you don't currently have that you will need to get it to be compatible. I would say you would need at least a 450W power supply. If you have less than that now, upgrade. This is also a PCI-Express board, so make sure you have a compatible video card too.

You might be better off going to Crucial.com or one of the other good memory sites and letting them test your machine.  They can tell you exactly which configuration will and won't work on your motherboard.  It's possible to save a lot of money by getting an expert's advice on that.

There are thoudsands ones. And over 90% mainboard support for DDR (DDR1 as you said), which may also support DDR2.  We have other 2 types are DRam and Ram Bus, but they are "pasted" way.\n\nJust read the information on the wrbsites of these companies, you will know what type of memory they support

Sorry,the answer is no.DDR has 184 pins and DDR2 has 240.Unless your motherboard has slots that accept both then the answer is yes.
