Are you UK?
If so, www.overclockers.co.uk , www.savastore.com , www.ebuyer.com , and www.aria.co.uk are good places to look.

Also of course bear in mind a few places charge quite a lot for delivery so ad stuff to the cart and check the total price before making comparisons.

Well you can't set PC3200 RAM to be 100mhz when the other RAM isn't I don't think, it doesn't sound like that board will support 3200. You may need to source 2700 RAM instead.

Then there should be no problem with sticking one stick in at least. Try both sticks on their own, i.e. just the first, then just the second.

I meant buy or replace, but if it supports 3200, you shouldn't have to unless your RAM is faulty. I very much doubt both sticks are.

I wouldn't change the timings, but the speed is controlled via the 'bus speed' setting in your BIOS.

Try 166mhz as your DRAM clock.
