RAM Type??

[mtb_ryder130]

Hey! I'm wondering if anyone can Identify this RAM.

I think that it's DIMM SDRAM, but I'm not sure.

It came out of a Pre-2000 machine.

Thanks

pc-100, or pc-133. whats the mhz rating on there?

 

[mtb_ryder130]

Sorry, but i have no idea, but on the back barcode sticker, it says, above the b-code, "XR-DIMM168/64SD-100"

Does it say the MHz rating on it??

Thanks, Jesse.

The reason for this is so that I can put a higher RAM amount into my sister's computer. This stick is only 64mb. lol.

 

[jp198780]

lol, from that i can tell it's 168 pin, and 100, probrably means it's 100MHZ, meaning it's PC-100, does your sisters RAM look identical 2 that? if soo it will work, pc-133, or pc-100, pc-133 just runs at 133MHZ.

That is my sister's RAM so I'm wondering what I have to buy in order to get some more speed out of her pentium 2.

Her Comp is sooooo slow right now...

ok, well you can download Everest, i think it will tell you what type? google/yahoo, should tell you everything about the ram. i have it on my systems.

 

[jp198780]

wait, thats the 64MB stick?

 

[mtb_ryder130]

ya thats a 64mb stick.

 

[jp198780]

ok, well do you know the max ram supported 4 tha mobo? 1st of all, what kind of computer is it?

 

[Ku-sama]

i prolly have about 1000 128MB sticks of PC100....

 

[mtb_ryder130]

I dont know what kind of puter i is, i think it's custom made.
The mobo has 3 slots, so how much ram it can take, I don't know,

and how much would you want for 3 sticks?
could I have them for free??
lol

 

[jp198780]

i'd say the max is 384MB, 3 128MB stick, but im not sure.

 

[jp198780]

like i said, if you download Everest, it may tell you how much the mobo can handle.

 

[mtb_ryder130]

ok thanks.

waiting to see if that other guy will give me those stiks for free!!

lol probly not.

 

[jp198780]

lol, iunno, maybe get rid of em 4 a couple bucks.

 

[mtb_ryder130]

we tried putting one stick of 128 mb into it, and removed the 64mb one, but we kept getting the BSOD so we reverted. I think we were using incorect type of RAM. lol

 

[jp198780]

it fit? then it couldt be the incorect RAM, maybe the computer cant handle that much?

 

[mtb_ryder130]

ya it fit, but im sure the computer can handle more than 128mb.

 

[jp198780]

if the max was 128MB, it would hande 128, noting more.

 

[mtb_ryder130]

honestly i think that the max is proly more than 128mb

ill check the mobo for any manuf. names/models then google it to see.

still waiting on those sticks

well go to a computer store and see if they can give us anything.

thanks.

any other info?
