alright now im confused...

shouldnt i just run PC133 again, along with my current PC133 module???
thats the type of ram i was hoping for since its the same as in my current PC

oh oops. my bad. i thought it was PC133. you need THIS memory Newegg.com - Crucial 512MB 168-Pin SDRAM PC 133 Desktop Memory - Retail
If i were you, i would buy 2, which would give you 1GB, and take out your old memory, because this new memory has much faster timings, Cas Latency 2 vs Cas Latency 3 for your old memory

so CAS 2 is better than CAS 3?

Yes. Lower Timings numbers are faster.

oh okay awesome
now are you sure that this will be compatible with current setup? given the info i just gave?

and my question again....lol will the choices I made at the top of this post still work?

The memory i recommended you will be compatible with your motherboard. However, Your old memory will not be usable, due to timings differences. Also, dont even bother buying a new graphics card, it wont be worth it. Frankly, if i were you, i wouldnt mess with that system too much, and just save up to buy a new one. Just my opinion though.

yeah you're probably right, i dont think theres too much I can get out of it besides upgrading the ram

so youre recommendation will work as will my first choices correct?
just as long as i take out my old ram?
