Just bought 128 meg dimm of pc 133 ram. My board is abit bm6 socket 370 board with celeron 366. Bios fails to pick up the new dimm. ive taken out my old ram and tried the new dimm in each of the slots and it still fails to pick it up. Ive been out of the hardware scene for a while, so i dont know if its common knowledge that pc 133 ram dont work on socket 370 boards or what. Do i just have a bad stick of ram that needs to be replaced?

You may have to exchange it for a stick of PC100. Many socket 370 Boards support PC133 but I'm not to sure about the BM6. From ABits site it says it
supports 66 & 100.
