They probably will not work together well, and maybe not at all. But it's worth a try. Put the 1gig stick in the primary slot..then put the 256meg stick in the backup slot and see if the Windows System Info tool *sees* the extra 256meg of RAM. If it does, then do a test drive of a game and see how you like it. HTH.
