Add a 266 Mhz module..but it will not be available..so get a 333 mHZ module..
it will work but at 266 Mhz ..

Yeah, what Samrulez said should work , sometimes it may lead to problems like
hangups.

If I add a 333MHz module,will it work with my existing 128 MB 266Mhz module.

yeah it will work with ur current RAM module but it will work underpowered and work at 266Mhz, hence u won't notice that much hike in system performance.

The max ur laptop's mobo can handle is 2GB of RAM at 333Mhz, so its better to get absolutely new modules to get enhanced performance.
