two types on ram on one board

[silver]

I have one stick of ram...512mb ddr.pc3200 samsung ddr400 oem ram

And another stick pc 266, 256 ddr mb of ram working side by side

My mother board is an Asus p4se that has three double data rate (ddr) dimm sockets that support up to 3gb non -ecc pc2700/2100/1600 ddr unbuffered
my front bus is 400mhz
processor 2400mhz

The question is , are theses two ram sticks compacable with each other
another question is my board supports up to pc2700, and I am using one stick
of ram that is pc3200...is that a problem?

And will the ram that is pc266 cause a problem?

PC266? would that be PC2100 ram? The two sticks of ram should work together, but everything would run at PC266 speed.

yes thats what it says ddr ram pc266 256mb
The only other markings i can find on it is v32m8tg-75
and budda81a....I can't really find any useful imformatiopn on it?

yeah it will work, but it defaults to the slowest stick...

So its best for me to leave the slowest one out and upgrade to another stick of pc3200 I would think
