Needed to increase my amount of Ram so went and bought 3x128MB PC133. Fitted them, everything ok, system stable, then discovered the motherboard makers state PC100 as the compatible DIMMS.

As everything seems to be working fine do you think I am unwise to continue using them or can I expect problems to arise in the future.

Not a problem, except in rare instances. I'm PC133 at 100 with no prblems here.

Generally you can mix PC100 and PC133 memory in the same system. The faster memory will run at the slower memory's speed (in this case PC100). However, there are some systems that will not correctly run this memory configuration. It is rare, but we suggest you contact your computer manufacturer or motherboard manual for specifics.
