hi bill ram was a bust ...wasn't what i wanted ...it was a pc100

**BCCOMP** · 10-29-2009, 09:07 PM

Hi,
PC100 may work just at a lower speed
How much does your friend have (atleast 512MB)?
Bill

How about $27 for a 512MB PC-133 module?

Nice find and a good price Johnwill.

Carrie-Ann keep us posted.

Thanks,
Bill

Don't know if that's the Silver Bullet for this issue, but there's no reason to spend a lot of money in case it's not.

Hi Johnwill,
Not sure myself, but the RAM (PC133) is not cheap.
In any case 512MB is a lot better than 256MB and the price is right.

Carrie-Ann also has a new toy (not posted), but wants to improve this one before giving it to her hubby.

took johnwill's advise sending for a pc33 for 27 dollars it will take awhile for it to come ...they told it will take upto 3 or 4 weeks to clear a canadian money order [sorry guys not comfortable with buying over the internet ]so they told me i can pay by money order i'll let you know when it comes in
