I recently assembled a computer and I cannot get it to work right. My speculation is that I have PC100 SDRam in there right now and it requires PC133 SDRam. Can anyone tell me if the two really make a difference? The Motherboard (Abit KT7A Raid) Says to use PC133 but I wanted to try the PC100 since that is what I already had. Should this change make a significant difference?

I've not tested this theory myself, but most memory manufacturers say yes. You should always match the memory to motherboard requirements. Crucial (www.crucial.com) has information on the subject if you want to take a look.

Hope this helps!

Thanks. According to Crucial.com and the Abit Website I will need to have the PC133 SDRam in order for the system to work. You were of Help, thank you.
