mdnky said:Works just fine on the beige, and it's definitely PC66 (Aug 1998, beige desktop case, g3 300). There's been 3 Kingston PC133 chips in it since OS X 10.0 was released.
According to Centon (http://www.centon.com/faqmemory.htm#q45) theirs will work at any speed.
DeltaMac said:My deduction is the multiple step up (PC-66 bus to PC-133 RAM) is a 'try-it and see if it works'! I'm swapping these out for PC-100, which I know will work, but PC-133 is a little easier to find now.
mdnky said:Did the ship specifically state it was backwards compatible, or PC133 only? There are some out there that aren't backwards compatible so that was probably the issue you had.
