Greetings Experts!
I recently added memory to a friend's machine.  Now, they are telling me
that (1) they can't have as many applications open as they did, and (2) the
machine locks up randomly.  I received this in an e-mail just before they
left town.

The system, as I remember it, uses Windows 98SE, an Intel brand motherboard
with a slot-to-socket converter running a 466 MHz cpu.  I upgraded the
memory from 128 to 256 MB using new Kingston PC-100 Value-RAM.

Should I have used PC-133 memory instead?  Any suggestions?
Thanks for your help!  Sorry about the sketchy details.
Ron Jobe
