Depends on the motherboard, check the manual. Some motherboards will use both, most won't. In those cases you can use either but not both. Only way to tell is check the motherboard manual and see if it specifically says it will use both SIMM and DIMM or SDRAM at the same time. Mine says nope.

If your mobo supports the use of both types then having EDO simms(@66) and Pc100 SDRAM will not cause a problem as far as i know. In all of the mobo's I've seen that support both, you are limited as to which Dimms slots can be used when doing a "combo" setup....check in the mobo book for the limitations.
