maybe I have the wrong kind of pc133 then, just bought a bunch on ebay
to try. it was cheap. Crucial does have some listed, but if I cant
find some that will bump it up mmore, I will just forget about it.
Funny thing is, I have 2 sticks of identical 256k pc133 ram, with both
in there, it beeps and will not boot. Will boot with one or the other
in, but not both at the same time. For some reason, its not liking the
full 512

Not all PC133 memory is the same, theres a timing standard of some sort, I
can't remember what its called exactly, EC2 or something like that. Its been so
long since I've had to deal with it I've forgotten.
Does Crucial have the memory for your computer? Probably easier and cheaper to
buy from them. I paid just over $60 for 2GB for my Linux machine which has
cured a bunch of issues with it being kinda pokey.

I used that cruicial tool to find out how much I can go with one of my
other computers the kids use. It says 256k in each slot, 2 slots, max.
Said pc133. I have a whole bunch now and I can only get a certain 256
stick to work in one slot and a 64 I think in the other. I cant go the
full 512. And it wont use most of the memory I have even though its 133
etc, just beeps when powered on and will not boot. What the heck?
