PC100/PC133 has 168 pins, DRR PC200/PC266 has 184
pins...they use different slot designs and are not
interchangeable. Some makers may install both kinds of
slots on the same mobo, or so I've heard, but you can't
install both type of RAM at same time. I imagine you may
have to set the BIOS to auto-detect the RAM type or even set
a jumper.
Your mobo manufacture website should have your answer. You
can determine the mobo make and model by reading the silk
screened printing on the board or by using some software
detection programs such as AIDA32 or BelArc Advisor
