    Post can I use 100 mhz memory mixed with 133 mhz memory?

    I have 100 mhz DIMM memory in my PC (133 mhz bus processor)
    Can I add 133 mhz memory without a chance of the memory not working?

    In other cases (other bus speeds...)
    can I mix the memory 66/100/133 mhz??

    Do i have to make any adjustments in the bios?

    Tnx

    If your board supports pc133, yes you can mix. Both DIMMs will run at 100mhz speed however.
    If pc133 supported, suggest replacing the pc100 for maxium speed.
