Mismatch the ram Types on the system board??

Archived from groups: ibm.ibmpc.thinkpad,microsoft.public.windowsxp.general (More info?)

All,
I was wondering if someone could help with a Memory Type issue? I have a ThinkPad A31p that uses PC2100 DDR SODIMM Memory, I know I can use PC2700 Ram on the System but Can I mismatch the ram on the system board ie:: us PC2100 in one slot and PC2700 / PC3200 in the other?

Thanks in advance - CES

On the A31P that should not be a problem.
There is a chart on the IBM site that shows you the mix and match
combos, there is one model, possibly a certain T40, that it says you
can not mix
