Hi all,

I have an old motherboard, matsonic ms8157e, and Im trying to purchase some ddr memory for it, the problem is Im not sure which to get I have found lots of modules but Im confused at which one to get, basically I need to know the mhz, the manual sya support for 100 and 133 mhz, does this meen I can put a 100 in and a 133 ?

Thanks for the help.

Hi

you may get more response if you posted in the pc`s and mobiles forum.

if your mobo states that it can support both 100Mhz & 133Mhz memory, i`d
suggest taking a look in your bios or motherboard jumper settings to determine
what it`s current speed is.

133Mhz memory inserted into a mobo running at 100Mhz will work fine albeit at
a slightly slower speed, but 100Mhz memory fitted into a mobo running at 133Mhz
will not work...the usual symptoms will be boot failure and/or lockups.
