EDO vs SDRAM 1

[Physhnpham]

With RAM prices at such low levels I'd love to upgrade my PRO 200 to at least 128M from 64M. Problem is, it currently runs EDO and I don't know if I can pull it all and replace with SDRAM. Oh, this is a Gateway running Win95 and is about 5 yrs old. If memory serves I have three slots but could be wrong on that.
Any feedback will be appreciated.

ya gotta open it up and look. Three slots would suggest 2 edo +1 sd but that is unlikely. more likely 4 dimm. Ed Fair

Any advice I give is my best judgement based on my interpretation of the facts you supply.

Help increase my knowledge by providing some feedback, good or bad, on any advice I have given.

I have a (UK) Gateway 2000 G300 that came with 64MB of EDO on one stick sitting in one of three EDO slots. Take a look at

http://www.gateway2000.co.uk/commun/tech.htm

and enter whichever area, home or office as appropriate. Here you will find an "upgrader" option, which, when u enter your bios detail, will return the spec of your board, memory etc. You will probably find that the board supports PC66 EDO. I have just mixed 64MB pc66 and 1x128 pc100 EDO and its works on the board with the supplied BIOS update. Good luck.
