I think it will work ok but just at a lower speed.
I have a Compaq Evo D310. Seems it has 2 odd 128mb Dimms in it.
Just checked the specs and apparently it can run 2 x 1GB DDR PC2100
Went on the Crucial Web Site, they recommend PC2700 and confirm it is 2x 1GB that fits.
Am I right in assumuming that if the board on runs at PC2100 speed then the PC2700 will fit and run but only opperate at the lower board speed.
TIA. :y

yep..2700 will run on slower speed.. so no problem.. :y
and also your mobo timings may permit to run them even in 2700 if adusted properly by some multiplication factors..

Cheers Cem. I thought it would be ok but thought it worth a mention. Also the fact that Crucial advertise them for that system they should be ok..
Cheers. :y :y

As Cem says, the 2700 will quite happily drop to 2100 if that is all the BIOS/chipset will allow.
If your BIOS/chipset does allow memory tweaking where the BUS speed is concerned, you might as well buy PC3200 and ramp it up as much as you can.

I imagine they would be quite expensive, DDR stuff is. Almost as cheap buying another laptop !.
Its a crazy world :-/

£31.04 per IGB inc Vat. (62.08)
Bit cheaper from Aria etc, but as TB pointed out a while back, Lifetime warranty and never been handled by muppets. Price inc del.
£59.67 from Aria inc Del for 2x 1GB Kingston (but could be returns - even though they are not supposed to.)

Kingstons are ok.. :y
