Hi, ignore that last link anyway it's for a different model.
You want PC2100 DDR SDRAM (266MHz) CL 2.5 non-parity DIMMs, either 128MB,
256MB or 512MB modules.
Your motherboard's only got two slots, each a separate bank. Find out if
one of the slots is empty, otherwise to upgrade you'll have to remove one or
both modules you've got now for larger ones. If you've got 512MB now it's
probably in 2 x 256MB modules.
HTH.
