Answer» Hi guys,
I have 2 old computers, one is from 1999 and the other is from late 2000.
I want to use some of the RAM from the yr 2000 PC in my 1999 one. My question is will the RAM be compatible? The RAM I want to put in is a 128 MB stick of PC-133. But I do not know what KIND of this PC takes.
Can you guys help?You have provided no useful information. In any event, download and install this and it will tell you what memory you have now.Attached is the info CPU-Z gave me.
Sorry, I can give you more info, just tell me what you need.
[attachment deleted by admin]Which machine are you displaying? You need one for each, since you want to move RAM from one to the other. Label them so you tell which is which. Also click on SPD TAB and it will show each RAM slot in the pull-down box and the details of the RAM module. This may not be available or accurate in older computers.That was for the machine I want to put the RAM into. The computer I'm taking RAM from is not set up right now but I know the RAM is PC-133.
And the SPD tab did not give me any info.SPD was not STANDARDIZED on all computers until later.
If the modules have the same number of contacts and the NOTCH is in the same location, all are the same. PC66, PC100, PC133 are all the same (except for speed) and are usually backward compatible, i.e. you can use a PC133 in a PC100 or 66. If the PC133 fits into the slot you can do no damage by trying it.
