    hi all
    like the tital says,
    is ddr 400 compatible with msi 1029?


    on msi website it says,
    Main Memory : Two SO-DIMM Sockets DDR 333, MAX: 2GB
    http://www.msicomputer.com/NB/product_spec.asp?model=MS-1029

    but, gamepc.com says their notebook (using 1029 barebone)
    comes with pc3200...
    it's not like I'm gonna get a notebook from them but just wondering
    so, I guess it would be okay to use pc3200?

    http://www.gamepc.com/shop/systemfamily.asp?family=noteb10

    do you guys know any known problem for using pc3200?




    thank you for any help :D

    just make sure to remove it from "Auto" to "400" in the bios and all will be fine.
