If it's running then you're all set! Shouldn't hurt it if you're not crashing all the time. PC100 just means that it's guaranteed to run at 100Mhz...it doesn't mean that it isn't going to be able to run faster than that.
 
funny hting is i was going throught the manual of my mobo and it says the highest speed ram it supports is 133

Mobos only officially support 100 MHz and 133 MHz FSBes because that's the only way your cpu is going to be in spec. That doesn't mean that it isn't going to work. Just like the cpu only supports its default MHz. Same thing, really.
