what ram do I get for a CPI-A 500XT??

Question

I just upgraded my cpi-A 366xt to a 500XT, Did doing that get me into the PC100 relm?? or do I stick with the PC66. Will PC100 even work in this thing?   I wish there was an update to allow more ram to be installed. They didnt think far enough ahead with upgrading apparently.   Im also looking for a PIII sticker now.

PC100 8 chip low density 128mb modules will work, but 256mb total is it. One 256mb PC100 16 chip will also work but that's it. It will not boot with even 32mb in the other slot.

RAM space on the CPiA is cramped, so if you go for the 128mb size it needs to be Low Profile also. With the 256mb module, it does not matter since you are only using one.
