my system?

Standard PC100 or PC133 168Pin 3.3V SDRAM should be OK. Just try 'em.

Crucial or Kingston's websites have plenty of info.

Details for the HP machine are here

Memory bus will work at the speed of the slowest component. Putting PC100
in a system that is otherwise PC133 will slow it down.
