I'm sorry if this has been answered before, like long long ago when these parts were new. I am new to upgrading. I have always used my computers "as is" as long as they perform the few functions I require of them.
Well I would like to upgrade the memory in my current passed-down system. I have a no name computer with the FIC az11e motherboard, AMD duron cpu, 1.5GB limit, one 64MB memory stick and one 128 MB memory stick, with one slot empty. My current memory is 192 MB, I need a minimum of 256 MB to perform new tasks.
From my research, I need a PC133 168 pin memory stick. I will be upgrading my entire system next year, however, for the moment I need to improve what I have (cheaply). Will any PC133 168 pin memory stick work? I have been on a few memory manufacturer sites, which have been helpful. Kingston for instance gave me 4 or 5 suggestions for my upgrade, however, I have found several similar items on ebay made by kingston with model numbers not shown on their site that seem to fit the needed description. So what will and will not work?
