will a cpu with a 133 fsb work with pc100 memory? and will a cpu with 133 fbs work with a motherboard that has a 100 fbs? ive got a older computer that i am working on and dont want to use the wrong parts.

please post the specs on your computer....specifically the mainboard, processor, etc.
as an example answer to your question...check out this site:

Typically, yes (of course it will only run at 100/133 = 3/4 the speed), HOWEVER you need to say what CPU and what Motherboard - a lot of old 100FSB Motherboards (eg. Athlon) will not run at all with a more modern 133FSB CPU chip (eg Barton).
