lol it would be perfectly fine mate, they are not related in any way! Just try and get the same brand, will ensure you get good performance. Any other problems just give me a shout :) | |

Ok sorry mate for being blunt. Basically, your motherboard will support any Socket 370 Pentium 3/Celeron up to 800mhz, ff you wished to upgrade it. Socket 370 is the industry standard of matching the right processor to motherboard. So Socket A would be Athlon's/Duron's, and so on, they all have different names. With your memory, you can theoretically have 2 x 512MB of RAM, with a clock speed of 133mhz (PC2100) | |

No a gig is your maximum. And you can have anything up to 800mhz, as long as its P3 or Celeron. | |

BTW, i know hardware well, and i cannot solve the problem with my board, so expect more problems! Are you running a VIA chipset by any chance? | |

Any of the MSI MS 6*** series are shocking when it comes to BIOS flashing. The memory should be ok as long as it is PC2100 (which it is). My MSI mobo only supports PC2300 RAM which doesnt exist anymore. Had different modules to PC2100 but DDR too, even though it wont run at full speed or let me advance the timing rates. | |
