If it's RDRAM it'll have to be 2 more 256MB sticks

Otherwise if it's SDRAM just get a 1GB stick

This particular series comes with various configurations of memory, but all have banks of 1 - yours has four 4 banks of 1, thus you can install one module at a time in any of the 4 banks.

Have a look at the Crucial site for further information and use the Crucial system scanner.

As they are offering a 1GB module, and guarantee that it is compatible, there should be no problems.

Use the Crucial System Scanner, this will reveal all, or download Everest Home Edition.

I asked a few weeks ago about memory and you gave me great information. I purchased a 1GBPC-3200 DDR 400mhz stick. When I install it the monitor will not work.
Do you know if the pc supports duel channel (memory with chips on both sides of the stick?
I will welcome any help
