I'm going to be upgrading my brothers old machine with some memory sticks lying around at my place. His PC is a 1.3 Duron (100 Mhz bus) on a Gigabyte 7VAXP and the VIA chipset on it supports up to DDR400 memory. What I want to know is:
Is it ok to run DDR400 memory with just a 100Mhz bus CPU - i.e. 1:2 ratio?
Will upgrading the memory cause Windows XP to want to reactivate?
Thanks in advance.
