Yes for most practical purposes these are compatible (as long as these are same form factor). If you have a motherboard which supports DDR400. You can install any of the DDR266, DDR333, DDR400 modules. All these memories will work (at the speed of the slowest speed memory).

∙ 15y agoYes, you can in almost all cases. While it will always fit in, in very rares cases it may not work, either the system will fail to boot or there will be unexpected instability. This would be very rare however.

What are some examples of computer motherboards compatible with PC3200 DDR400 memory?
Some examples of computer motherboards compatible with PC3200 DDR400 memory are computers with XD motherboards which run a lot faster and have more raw access memory.
What is PCMCIA stand for?
PCMCIA stands for Personal Computer Memory Card International Association. It is a standard for externally accessible expansion slots that accept cards that are compatible.
Are non eec computer compatible with eec memory?
This varies between motherboard manufacturer's. You would need to contact your motherboard manufacturer e.g ASROCK to find out for sure.
How do you fix a printer that is short on memory?
Almost always it is not the printer that is short on memory, but the computer that is using it. And in fact, the computer may not be short on memory, but on disk space. The first fix, then, is to check that the disk drive where the print queue is kept (usually C:) has at least some free space. With modern operating systems (Windows XP and later), at least 500 megabytes should be available on your C: drive. If the printer itself is reporting that it is out of memory on its display, the only solution is to buy more memory for the printer. Most printers that use their own memory, rather than relying on the computer for storage, will have memory slots where some form of memory cartridge or stick can be inserted. Do not assume that if it is a standard size, that it is also a standard memory; printer manufacturers have proprietary memory, just as they have proprietary cartridges, and inserting standard computer memory into a printer's memory slot can destroy both printer and memory, and will certainly void any warranty you have. Contact the store where you bought the printer, or the printer manufacturer, for sources of compatible memory. Older printers would actually require that you buy an entire memory board, and install it inside the printer housing. Some such memory boards are available on eBay or other auction sites. If you need one, be certain that the memory board is for your exact model of printer, and check the seller's feedback before bidding.
Difference between expanded and extended memory?
Extended memory Memory addresses greater than or equal to one megabyte are called extended memory. The 8088 and 8086 PCs can't have extended memory because these chips can access only addresses of less than one megabyte (1MB) in size. With the minor exception of the High Memory Area (HMA), extended memory can be addressed only by applications run in real mode. It is possible, however, for DOS applications to make use of this memory to store data (but not to execute code directly from there). XMS (eXtended Memory Standard, promulgated by Microsoft) permits applications to allocate extended memory and takes care of copying data to and from extended memory and conventional memory so that the application does not have to worry about switching between modes. Like EMS, XMS usually requires loading a device driver of some sort. Extended memory is limited to 15Mb on 286es and 386SXes (15Mb extended plus 1Mb conventional and upper memory equals 16Mb, or 224, 24 being the number of address lines coming out of the CPU), limited to 4 gigabytes (232) for 386DX chips and up, although very few motherboards have been designed to hold that much memory. Expanded memory Expanded memory is addressed from within the lower 1MB space, usually above 640K. It is sometimes up to 64K of real addresses but this is just a small portion of the whole expanded memory, which can be very large. The expanded memory requires hardware and/or software that maps the expanded memory to a piece of address space, in what is called a "page frame". Extended memory can be used as expanded memory by using software and the 80286 or 80386 chips to "remap" it to the lower 1MB. It should be noted that the 80386 chip has hardware built in that supports expanded memory while the 80286 chip does not. Software that will convert extended memory on an 80286 machine to expanded memory may result in a significant performance penalty, if the machine does not have special hardware support for expanded memory. Software that will convert extended memory to expanded memory on an 80286 machine is not written to use the special hardware built into the 80386 chip, so the same type of performance penalty may apply. Hardware supported expanded memory is the fastest form of expanded memory and is available directly on all 80386SX or better IBM compatibles running the proper software. It is also available on some 80286 machines with special chip sets or 80286 machines equipped with a hardware memory manager add-on. Lastly, it is available in a large number of memory expansion boards for all IBM compatible machines, including the 8088/8086 machines
Will DDR400 modules work slower in a DDR266 motherboard?
Yes.
What are some examples of computer motherboards compatible with PC3200 DDR400 memory?
Some examples of computer motherboards compatible with PC3200 DDR400 memory are computers with XD motherboards which run a lot faster and have more raw access memory.
What will happens if you put a DDR400 Memory in a DDR333 Maximun DIMM?
Your motherboard might be able to 'clock back' the DDR400 to DDR333. This means that the DDR400 ram will reduce it's clock speed to DDR333 to be compatible. Not all motherboards support this though.
When was the DDR400 memory first available on the market?
The DDR400 memory modules for computers were first available on the public market in 2002. It was the largest volume of memory available in one place at the time is was released.
Can you use DDR400 on a P4VXASD2 motherboard?
No you cannot the ECS P4VXASD2 supports the following:Two 184-pin 2.5V DDR SDRAM (DDR266/DDR200) Maximum: 2GB DDR or SDRAM (Buffered) / 1GB DDR or SDRAM (Unbuffered)
What is the price of a DDR266 RAM?
The procie varies depending on the locale and size of the memory as well as its speed.
Does compaq presario 5430 support memory ddr400?
http://www.vikingcomponents.com/configurator/searchmodel.asp Go here. You can find out from this website.
Where can one purchase PC3200 DDR400?
One can purchase a PC3200 DDR400 from the website Ebay. Once on Ebay one can find a seller who is selling the PC3200 DDR400 and make a bid in order to purchase it.
Can ddr 400 work on a ddr 333 system?
Yes it can....DDR memory will adjust its speed to the lowest speed of the board or the other memory chip. If the other memory chip is DDR333 the DDR400 will down clock itself to 444 to be compatible. Sometimes you might need to adjust certain settings in the BIOS to accomplish this (timings, latency, etc.).
Will pc133 sodimm work in a ddr266 sodimm slot?
No.
Does the memory on a graphics card need to match the memory on the motherboard and if not what memory types are compatible compatible?
the memory between the video card and the mother board DO NOT need to match. the memory on the vid card CANNOT be upgraded.
In what ways are the DDR400 RAM better than regular ones?
DDR400 RAM contains better hardware and faster processing speeds. The DDR400 RAM is able to perform tasks at a significantly faster rate than normal RAMs.
