Is it possible to use two different types of RAM at the same time. I have 1Gig of DDR-333MHz and have been given a stick of 512MB of DDR-400MHz. Can I use the the two types together??

Yes, if your motherboard supports both types of RAM. Using them together will cause them to run at the speed of the slowest stick.
