I'm using 2 PC3200 256mb cards...Anyways, do I have to get the exact same brand? Like do I have to get PC3200 cards? I want this 1gb memory card but it's not PC3200, will it work?

Go to http://www.crucial.com/

and choose "MEMORY UPGRADE" and from there the site will tell you what memories are available for your computer. If you need additional help them you can call them and they will help you.

Depends, if it's PC2700 it will work because PC2700 is backwards compatible with PC3200. If your PC is able to handle PC3200 memory at that speed then I would definitely get the PC3200 module. You can either put PC3200 or PC2700 memory in your computer. Note if you mix and match modules (i.e. a PC3200 with a PC2700 both will operate at PC2700 speed). It is not advisable to put PC2100 memory in your system. DDR2 memory is not compatible with it.
If you aren't sure what to get run the Crucial Memory advisor, http://www.crucial.com/systemscanner/
You don't have to buy Crucial memory but that will tell you what your system can support and the maximum amount of memory you can put in it.
