Have you actually tried the stick of pc133 jase? It should work and default to pc100 speed.

PC 133 is backwards compatible and will run at 100mhz if set to run at that in the bios.

I have a couple of old machines with mixed ram 133mhz and 100mhz and no probs.

You can't run 100 at 133 though.

weird thing is

i got 2 sticks of pc133 seems ordinary stuff to me system will not pick it up , stuck an old strip of 64mb pc100 in and it runs fine,

tried the ram in a m8's pc which is a bit more modern and it fired up fine, so this dell mobo must be picky,

stuff i have is

pro brand 128mb pc133 2 strips as well
