ddr 533 ram

I'll be easier just to buy ddr 677 or 800. It both works in the same mobo as that ram
 
All 3 should be ddr2 240 pin? They should work, very strange...

OK, laptop 200 pin...
 
As far as i know they have stopped making 533 memory and you only get 667 which is slowly being phased out as well.

Not at all, in fact I covered this in the FAQ which is why this is confusing me...

Can you elaborate a bit on what happened when you tried to install the faster RAM, dd1313? :)

Nothing happened...THe PC came on but nothing happened..screen was
blank..thought it was the memory...took it back and the tech at the
computer shop tried with a couple of 667 modules and it did not work.

Used my initial 533 and it works...took memory our from my friends lappy..he
also has 533 and it works .Called Mustek , they are the agents, and they say
what is happening is correct...This Toshiba Satellite L30 only uses
533 Mhz

I have one in stock, transcend 512mb DDR2 533. I'll have to check for a price, a bit later, where do you live?

First time I've heard of a laptop not automatically downclocking RAM. We live and learn :)
