I have a question if I can install 1GB PC400 RAM to PC2100 socket fully working without any prob, I just want to add more RAM to my older PC but I couldn't find any PC2100 RAM in stores these days. I just want to extend it's usability. Thx

Since you posted this six months ago, you may have an answer already, but here is my two cents worth: use SHOPZilla.com to find the appropriate RAM board configuration for your motherboard. It will lead you to several computer parts sites that will have what you are looking for. Good luck.

Better check your motherboard model for the supported RAM module's speed and capacity. PC2100 is 266Mhz and 200pin, PC3200 is 400Mhz and 184 pin. Check this carefully to be sure.
