It depends on how many slots open on your pc's mem mod.Check the motherboard.

I am not much more of a techie than you are,
but the type of motherboard you have, and the memory
slots it contains define the type of memory you can
use.

If you can establish the maker and model number of your
motherboard either in documentation or by opening up the
machine and looking, you will then be able to go to
google.com and look up specifications for that motherboard.

That will then tell you the type of memory you can use
and the largest size of memory stick you can use in each of
the slots.

Sometimes you have to use the same size of memory card in
each of the slots, I believe, but sometimes not.

Hope this helps slightly.

Namaste!

Jim

Be careful, some boards will only support 256mb.

Check the manual, see if it will support 100 or 133 also.

Don't worry about the open slots, buy the max that your mb will handle, install the new one and see if it works ok, if your mb will recognize more, install the old one in back of the new one.

It's not hard :)
