I have already bought 512MB Ram, which unfortunately doesn't fit! OUCH
This is the one I bought!!

Samsung 512MB PC133 SDRAM DIMM PC Memory SD RAM 512 MB

The Plug in part has 2 gaps in it. My current memory only has 1 gap. So the new upgrade won't fir the slot.

So I need to know am I looking for this

SAMSUNG NEW 512MB PC3200 DDR 400 DIMM PC RAM MEMORY

or this

2GB DDR PC2100 266 266Mhz RAM GB 2 GB Go G nt 1GB

as both look like they would fit going by appearance?

Please Help!!

you need DDR1 memory

DDR PC2100 is fine for you processor .



if you ever want to upgrade your processor to a 3200+XP (fastest for your mobo), you'll require DDR400, but its more worthwhile to get a new PC.
