    i would doubt it since it doesn't specifically say it does .. what is the pin count on the ram?

    How or where can I find out the type and speed of ram I can use with it?

    Well, assuming that newegg's page is correct, I'd say that you could use the following:

    4x DIMM support Dual Channel DDR400/333/266 Max 4GB

    I think you'll find the following correspondence between the DDR numbers and the PC numbers:

    DDR400 - PC3200
    DDR333 - PC2700
    DDR266 - PC2100

    Your old PC1600 (DDR200?) memory might work, but it will certainly slow the machine down if it works at all.

    If it's DDR memory, it will have 184 pins, not 168 like the older PC100/PC133 SDRAM.

    Thanks Rob, I ordered 1 gig of PC3200 (corsair) from newegg.
