Here's the list of RAM you can buy. I looked it up for you at Crucial.com.

Just get a 256MB stick, since that's the most your slots can support. Get Part #CT32M64S4D7E. I'm not sure how fast your old memory is, compared to the one I specified. I'm not sure if you want to keep the old RAM, though. However slow that is, the new RAM won't run it's potential if you keep the old RAM in. Plus, you can just keep the old RAM in there. They're probably reliable.
FYI: PC2100 (and the like) is DDR, which your motherboard doesn't support.
Is that cool?

i suggest you get those lovely green sticks of ram with nice black chips on them 
useful, yet completley useless
Is that a Northwoody in your pocket or are you just eXPited to see me?
Yeah, according to the motherboard's manufacturer site, it says it can.
To be honest with you, I don't think it'll get to 150MHz. If you want 150, get Mushkin. I think quality is better than quantity, though. That's why I have both quality <b>and</b> quantity.
In my opinion, RAM should stick with it's own kind, so you know the limit of your RAM. If you have a good stick paired up with a generic one, it might hold you back if you're overclocking the FSB or something. If you're not overclocking, you'll probably be okay.
Is that a good enough reason to get good RAM?
