i really never heard of PC2-4300 vs PC2-4200, but i found This when i Googl'ed your numbers.
what you could do is buy some PC2-4200 from a store (online or concrete) that has a decent return policy and see if it works. i really do not see why it wouldnt. try the new stuff in the computer with the old memory taken out. if it works then (depending on your comp) you could add back in your old memory and see if that works too.
