look on the RAM sticks.
what speed is printed on it? ( usually a white sticker)
the speed is marked like pc 100 pc133 and so on.
also you have to look if the slots are actually the same.
but if the speed is the same and its both SDRAM or DDR-SDRAM. you can just put it in.
if 1 stick is slower.. well. i wouldnt do it then, because the faster stick would run on the same speed as the slowest one is running at.
