128 Mb SDRAM PC133 RAM - $9.99

http://www.tigerdirect.com/applicati....asp?CatId=827

At that price, you should be able to buy 2 and be confident of a matched pair. However, I've never had any problems with mis-matched speed for RAM (as long as I use the minimum). Only have had problems with type of RAM ie. ECC, etc....

You shouldn't have a problem, I would take out the 100mhz memory, just in case. What OS are you using? If it is 98 ver's then going over 512 mb wont help and might give you glitches (I can't remember exactly why, something about 8/16 bit processing I think). I don't remember hearing any issue with ME and memory. with Win 2K and Xp the skies the limit (err the MotherBoard is )

i just looked at what i was absent mindedly doing.
port 1: sd 100mhz 64mb
port 2: sd 133mhz 64mb
port 3: sd 133mhz 256mb

then i looked at the motherboard:
ports 1-2 100mhz , 2-3 133mhz
by what the compaq sit said your right all 3 ports will run at the slower speed.
