One of my 512 memory stick went out. System only recognizes 512 instead of
1gb. To check I took it out and tried it in another system- no go.
Here's the question and I know it's probably not correct newsgroup but
should be simple answer for you sys gurus.
The sticks are ddr333, 512meg, 184 pin. I have a extra ddr400, 1gb, 184 pin
stick.
The instruction for the MB says up to 4 gig and ddr333.

Will the ddr400 work w/o messing up system?


Why ask here? Your question has nothing to do with with OS (you did
notice the letters X and P preceeding the word Hardware in the group
title, right?)

Dear Mr Smith,

What part of XP is hardware?

Please enlighten me as to what kind of posts should be in this newsgroup?

Perhaps posts that deal with the interaction of the XP OS and the
hardware? Like driver conflicts, or questions about how to use the
hardware with the OS?

This situation is OS independent. Nobody can deny that.
