Generic 128 MB PC133 SDRAM Review

My old Hp Pavilion (now my mother uses it) is a 2001 with a PIII 600 cpu. A Generic 128Mb SDRAM PC133 ram went bad. This machine originally did not have a Generic PC133 in it, but was added later and worked many years. The computer worked fine until the Generic ram went bad (The original 128Mb ram is still working, but too small). I thought all SDRAM are the same and backwards compatible. Unfortunately I was wrong and bought this ram; my BIOS seen the size fine and I tried different configurations, but no go the computer would not boot. I wrote to the seller Cybermedia about my computer not accepting this ram. Their response was that there is such a thing as HIGH DENSITY and LOW DENSITY ram. They offered to check it out and if they found a problem they would replace it. The shipping back and forth costs more than the ram is worth, so I am out 10.00 for nothing. This review is not against Cybermedia, only beware some ram is not compatible.This ram happens to be High Density. Also the ram pictured shows the chips vertically the one I received were horizontal - I am not sure this makes a any difference.
