I want to upgrade the memory on an HP A1312n Media Center computer. It comes installed with 512 MB installed, and I can go up to 2 GB if the installed memory is replaced. The HP site listed the speed supported as PC2-3200 MB/sec. Will PC3200 400 MHz work? What is the ideal for adding 1 gig of memory?

PC2-3200 will work, but PC-3200 will. The difference of course is that one is DDR and the other is DDR2, and you need DDR2. PC2-3200 is pretty rare and hard to find, so just get either PC2-4300 or PC2-5400/5300, either will work, they will just slow down to work at the speed needed in your system.

DDR 400 and PC3200 are the same thing. Your system takes DDR2, so the pc3200 is not an option, as the slots an pinouts of ddr and ddr 2 are different.
