The 133 ram will not get past the post by itself. So I took it down to
the local computer store and let them install some memory. They put a
133 in with my 100, booted windows and thought it was OK. I tried to
boot OS/2 which tickled the 133 and died. The comp store found a 100 to
replace the 133 and everything is fine.
